  3. Then hydrate the noodles according to the instructions of the brand you buy (usually 5 or 10 minutes in warm water)
  4. Drain them and make a few cuts with scissors to make them easier to handle
  5. Then distribute the noodles in the container where you are going to serve the salad
  6. Add the rest of the chopped ingredients and, finally, add the vinaigrette and mix well
