• Cook noodles in boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Drain immediately in a colander and chill thoroughly under cold running water.
• Shake off excess water, then return the noodles to a clean dry bowl.
• Blend the seasonings in a small bowl.
• Pour the sauce evenly over the noodles, using a handful of noodles to wipe the bowl clean so you don't lose any of the sugar.
