We really enjoyed these noodles. I had to use fettuccini because the Chinese section of the grocery does not offer many items at all. I had no scallions so I added slivers of cabbage and carrots like our restaurant does. I will have to say that this is so much better than the noodles we usually order at the restaurant. So much more flavor. Thank you!

I really liked this, but will add a little less oil next time. Other than that, it was delicious!

Couldn't be much easier... or yummier! I added a little garlic, but otherwise stuck to the recipe. By the time I had the sauce made, the noodles were done and the whole thing took about 5 minutes to make. These noodles are great hot or cold or room temp. Thanx for a new, easy go-to Asian side dish.

I used soba noodles and I used all sesame oil ( no canola) - I also added a bit of salt and pepper. I served this with "Katsudon" -- this is a wonderful easy to make dish with lots of flavour-I will make again. Thanks ,swimmin, for the great recipe!
