NOTES : According to the author, Marilyn Schiveley, of Folsom, it’s a “killer”
because it’s so good. “It’s to die for,” she said. “My aunt and uncle had a
peach ranch in Colorado back in the 1950′s, and this is a tried and true,
never-fail recipe that gets rave reviews every time.”

made the rice noodles before, you are in for a surprise. The literally explode
in size in the oil and it is magic!! The oil has to be HOT or it won’t work
though. The first time I did it on my own, I didn’t have the oil hot enough,
the noodles laid in the bottom of the wok and played dead!! Good Luck!
