my husband liked this better than I did. Next time I will add an extra tbsp of brown sugar (already added 1 extra per other suggestions and I will decrease the amount of lime by 25-50%. I didn't find it too salty until I added soy sauce at the end as suggested. If you don't add any extra it shouldn't be too salty. Over all it was good, but needs a little tweaking.

I love Pad Thai, and I was thrilled to find a recipe that didn't require a trip to the not-so-accessible Asian market, and that cooked up so quickly. I found that 10-15 minutes was not long enough to soak the rice noodles, so I added about a half-cup of water to the pan as they were cooking in the sauce and cooked it down to the correct consistency, and it was perfection--it cooked the noodles perfectly and made the whole dish wonderfully saucy. I didn't find it too salty at all--in fact, it was less salty than pad thai made with dried shrimp, and the fresh shrimp added succulence and sweetness not usually found in traditional pad thai. Next time I make it, I might add some more brown sugar, but to be honest, it didn't really need it. It was just the taste I wanted, and I'll make it again and again. Thanks, Danny, for rescuing me from my pad thai craving so easily and so quickly!

I tried this last night - found that the noodles were a little rubbery; I think boiling them for 3 minutes would have been better than soaking them for 15 min in warm water would have been better. Also lacked the sweet component that Pad Thai I usually enjoy has.

This was the first time I've made pad thai. I saw this recipe while watching TV on the weekend and my husband said "wow - that sounds good". And it was. Very simple. Very quick. Inexpensive ingredients. Also a recipe you could easily add additional ingredients to.

I added two teaspoons of brown sugar to the sauce because a previous reviewer said this recipe was too salty. I'm sure it helped, but it was still too salty. It would be better with a full tablespoon of brown sugar.

My family loved this. I did increase the sauce a bit and added more sprouts. Next time I may add some fresh red pepper. Very tasty.

I was so excited to try this - I love pad thai from a local thai restaurant, so when I saw the show and realized it was relatively easy, I thought I would give it a try. It was nothing like what I've eaten in thai restaurants - dry, WAY too salty and I used reduced sodium soy sauce, and just lacking 'something'.

I spent $30 on all of the ingredients and threw away the majority of it. Sad to say, I was very disappointed - this will be deleted from my recipe box.
