Soak the rice noodles according to package instructions or until they are softened. Drain and set aside.
In a large pot, bring the vegetable broth to a boil over medium-high heat.
While the broth heats, finely grate the ginger and mince the garlic.
Add the grated ginger, minced garlic, lime juice, lime zest, soy sauce, and sesame oil to the pot. Stir to combine and simmer for 5 minutes.
Trim the ends of the snow peas and slice them in half diagonally. Chop the scallions into thin slices, separating the white and green parts.
Add the snow peas and the white parts of the scallions to the simmering broth. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the snow peas are just tender but still crisp.
Add the softened rice noodles to the pot, stirring gently to combine. Let them warm through for 1-2 minutes.
Season the broth with salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes (if using). Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Ladle the hot noodle broth into bowls. Garnish with the green parts of the scallions and fresh cilantro if desired.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for extra brightness.
