This looks so delicious and has everything I love..wondering if you think soba noodles would work instead of rice noodles? Would it interrupt the amazing flavors?

Made for lunch today and found it deliciously slurpable! Tangy, comforting, deep flavor profile, and quick. What's not to love? And for the reviewer who made a needlessly negative comment, confessing to not having made the recipe ... bah humbug to you. If you don't feel that you would enjoy a recipe, please feel free to move on to another and keep your prejudices to yourself.

Without even reading the recipes...nope. Put together by a college graduate with woke taste. Next@

Maybe review once you've actually tried making it...?

Wholly inappropriate comment coming from someone who didn’t even bother to make this dish. Maybe actually try something before you bash it. Save your stupid political arguments for another venue. we don’t need or want that nonsense here. Do better.
