Rinse the vermicelli with cold water after cooking: This will stop the cooking process and prevent the vermicelli from sticking together.
Add the vegetables and fruit to the salad while they are still slightly warm: This will help the flavors to meld together.
Use a light and flavorful dressing: A vinaigrette or a simple lemon-herb dressing is a good option.
Season the salad to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
Chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the salad to become more refreshing.
