On the Trail

  3. For warm noodles turn stove on high and heat noodles until steam rises through pot. Turn off stove. Grab chopsticks or spoon.

  4. Add vegetable slaw to the top of your noodles, but save the pickled juice! Noodles are ready, eat up!
  5. Drink pickling juice straight or add to water.
  6. When you finished eating, be sure to clean your prep and eating area and always leave no trace behind.

Recipe Notes

No cook: try these cold noodles on hot days. Simply add water ahead of time and let the noodles soak and rehydrate.

One pot: use a one pot stove to heat water. Boil soup ingredients, or add boiling water to dry mix, stir and let sit for 2 minutes,

Ziplock pickled slaw adds bright flavors and an elegant crunch to this meal. Vinegar is a rehydrating tonic paced with electrolytes, mix with water or drink straight.
