Cool Rice-Noodle Nests

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add noodles; cook until just tender, about 4 minutes. Drain. Rinse noodles with cold water, then transfer to a medium bowl of cold water; swish to separate. Drain. Return noodles to the empty bowl. Add oil; toss to coat, separating the noodles with your fingers.

Wind a small amount of the noodles around a fork to shape them into a nest. Transfer nest to a serving platter. Repeat with remaining noodles. Cover noodle nests with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 8 hours.
