“I tried this recipe again and it was still enjoyable but next time one thing I would do differently towards the end is pour the sauce over all the ingredients, not just the noodles, to better distribute the sauce and to try and avoid “over-saucing” the noodles” — a cook
“We have made many varieties of Pad Thai sauce (even “cheating” with some store bought brands from our local asian markets). This recipe is by far the best one my family has tasted, and the sauce has worked for a number of other dishes as well. If you love Shri” — a cook, 5★
