Easiest Way to Cook Beef Chow Mein Like A Pro Chinese Stir Fried Noodles with Beef Recipe

Some of you may be confused by chow mein and lo mein. Chow Mein is a literal translation of 炒面, which means fried noodles in Chinese, whereas Lo Mein is 捞面, which means tossed noodles. Both of these dishes are variations on Chinese-style noodles. Chow mein is prepared by stir-frying noodles with sauce and other ingredients in a wok. To make lo mein, cook the ingredients and make the sauce separately, then combine everything with the noodles without using any additional heat. If you're using dehydrated noodles, just blanch them first to soften them. If you're making chow mein, don't overcook the noodles during blanching or they'll be too soggy after they've been fried. For lo mein, cook the noodles through since you won't be cooking them again over heat. If you're using fresh noodles for lo mein, blanch the noodles briefly to warm them up before tossing them with the sauce and other ingredients.
