Gorgeous I did this with farfalle as I couldn't source radiatore locally. Went down very well. We'll definitely make it again! - 03 May 2013
I had never heard of radiatore pasta before i was making this for a party and wanted it to look nice. I found it at Waitrose by Lloyd Grossman. I also added some fresh red chilli to spice it up a bit. - 30 Jun 2011
Everyone loved this pasta salad! The only change I made was to use about half of the soy sauce called for. Delicious! - 01 Jul 2011
