Instructions

  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the rice noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and honey to create the marinade.
  3. Carefully boil the eggs for 6-7 minutes, then transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, peel the eggs and place them in the marinade for at least 30 minutes.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled noodles with sliced spring onion, julienned cucumber, and chopped cilantro.
  5. Remove the marinated eggs from the marinade and slice them in half. Serve the noodles topped with the eggs and drizzle with any remaining marinade.
