Cool egg sheets. Slice into thin strips to match chicken shreds. Onions: Wash & remove roots. Slice the long way, then thinly slice on the bias.

    Dressing:
    Mix soy, vinegar, chili oil, ginger juice, garlic & sugar. Heat oil until it begins to smoke; add to other ingredients. Cool. Using hot oil gives dressing distinctive & mellow flavor. Mixing: Just before serving, mix dressing with cold noodles, chicken & onion. Garnish with egg strips.
