Debra, I haven't made this recipe but have the ingredients to do it. Any additional tips? Colleen

Hey Deb-in-MI? What did you end up doing with your pad thai recipe?
- Thread starter colleenmomof2
- Start date
The dinner went perfectly.....
well, for the most part. The only negative that their was a woman from the fundraising org that came to speak (and have dinner) and she went into her talk just as I finished making the pad thai. To keep it warm (because I thought it was rude to serve just then) I put tops on both pans to keep it warm. well...she certainly talked - at least 25 minutes - and although the pad thai tasted great - the bright greens from cilantro and scallions muted by quite a bit.
The only words of advice are to double or triple the sauce!

Double the sauce - check smileys/wink.gif
Congratulations, Debra! This week I emptied our 3rd freezer/fridge (really the 1st - purchased in '80 smileys/wink.gif and called DTE to come pick it up. Have a package of pork tenderloin chunks with a recent date and buried deep that I intend to defrost, and if they pass muster, make my 1st GallyGirls Pad Thai. Thanks for your tips! Colleen

Deb, I meant to write that we tried this last weekend. Very good, but it does need a bit more sauce
Or maybe half the noodles?
I used your modified sauce instructions. Good blend of flavors, but followed the instruction on the noodle package as I had picked up super-thin rice noodles (like angel hair pasta) >> soak in boiling water for only 2 minutes and then rinse under cold water until cold and that worked out. Picked them up at Cost Plus World Market
Went a little crazy with add-ins: carrot matchsticks, sweet red pepper, fresh spinach, shiitake mushrooms.
It was great for the meal, but too dry the next day. Will definitely use it again
