How to cook deliciously - Asian Zucchini Noodle Salad

1. Stage

Spiralize zucchini noodles: Using a spiralizer or other spiral vegetable slicing tool, use the zucchini to make the zucchini noodles following manufacturer's directions. You should have 5 to 6 cups of "zoodles". Place in a colander set over a bowl and toss with salt. Let the noodles drain a bit of their excess moisture while you prep the other vegetables. Many of the noodles are quite long, so you'll want to cut them up a bit with scissors to make them easier to toss with the other vegetables.

2. Stage

Combine zucchini noodles with cabbage, carrot, bell pepper, onions, cilantro: In a large bowl.

3. Stage

Make dressing: Whisk together in a medium bowl the seasoned rice vinegar, olive oil, dark sesame oil, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes.

4. Stage

Pour the dressing over the zucchini noodles and vegetables: And gently toss to combine. Serve immediately.
