Very good! I thought there wouldn't be enough dressing but it was just fine! I added sesame seeds as well. Will make it again. Thanks for the recipe! -
I really liked this unique way to prepare bean sprouts. It was very quick and easy to make and tasted very refreshing. However, I felt as though it was missing something. Perhaps it was because I didn't add the dried shrimp, which I've actually (surprisingly) never heard of. Perhaps that would add the certain ZING I felt it was missing. Maybe next time i will throw in a little garlic or ginger to up the flavor. But, I would make this again, perhaps with one of these modifications. Or, with the dried shrimp (if I can find it). -
I love this! As I am continously growing sprouts in my kitchen I'm always looking for new ways to enjoy them. I've used mung bean sprouts and also a mix of clover, alfalfa, fenugreek and radish sprouts. This is quick and delicious immediately or if you make it and let it sit in your fridge for 30 minutes. Thanks!

I LOVE THIS!!!! I've been making this four nights a week! Instead of shrimp I add toasted sesame seeds. YUM!!! -
This has a lovely fresh taste. Easy to throw together too. I didn't use the dried shrimp. Enjoyed the sesame flavour. Thanks for posting twissis.

I am an American transplanted from Dallas to Iceland by marriage to a native Icelander & I retired to become his "Kitchen Queen". We love to entertain our family & friends, so I have an eclectic collection of recipes. I especially love simple, easy-fix, flexible & make-ahead recipes - BUT also like challenging myself on occasion. I enjoy baking & food photography. I am devoted to the "More is Always Better Principle" & apply it liberally to bacon, butter & garlic. I can have ingredient issues due to availability here in Iceland & my DH is medically diet-restricted from some ingredients as well. Either situation might require me to modify a recipe, but I will do my best to be true to your recipes & fair/honest in my reviews. Mary Pat (aka twissis)
