Tips:

  • Use the right noodles: Swabian egg noodles are the traditional choice for this salad, but you can use any short, sturdy noodle that will hold up well when tossed with hot dressing.
  • Cook the noodles al dente: The noodles should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. This will help them stay firm when tossed with the hot dressing.
  • Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what makes this salad so special, so be sure to use high-quality ingredients. The traditional dressing is made with vinegar, oil, mustard, and herbs, but you can also use a store-bought vinaigrette or your own favorite dressing.
  • Add your favorite toppings: This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables, meat, or cheese. Some popular toppings include bacon, ham, cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions.
  • Serve immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The noodles will start to soften and the dressing will lose its flavor if it sits for too long.
