Soak 100g of glass noodles in water for about 20 minutes.
Thinly julienne 1/4 of an onion.
Cut 2 crab sticks in half, then shred them finely.
Remove the seeds from half a cucumber and julienne it. Your ingredients are now ready.
Boil the soaked glass noodles in boiling water over high heat for only about 1 minute.
Immediately strain the cooked glass noodles, rinse them in cold water, and drain them well. Place them in a bowl.
Season the glass noodles with 0.5 tablespoon of sugar, 0.5 tablespoon of brewed soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, mixing well. Pre-seasoning this way prevents the noodles from becoming soggy and helps the sauce blend better.
Prepare the tangy mustard dressing: Combine 1 tablespoon of brewed soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of corn syrup, 1 tablespoon of sugar, a pinch of salt, 0.5 tablespoon of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of mustard, 0.5 tablespoon of sesame oil, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Mix well until everything is dissolved.
Add the julienned onion, shredded crab sticks, and julienned cucumber to the seasoned glass noodles. Pour all of the prepared mustard dressing over them.
Mix everything thoroughly by hand until all ingredients and the dressing are evenly combined. Your sweet, sour, and tangy cold glass noodle salad is now complete.
