This dish tastes even better when all the vegetables and noodles are kept chilled before serving. This is a great dish to make ahead, especially for a large party.
According to tradition, eating long noodles during Chinese New Year will bring longevity in the coming year. Pair that with vegetables, which symbolize health (and good luck from red radishes), and you’ve got a dish that brings all kinds of good fortune!
