Better than my local Asian restaurants and easy to cook. Thank you. My wife has liver disease and she has trouble finding food she can eat. She loves this. Thank you so much.
This lady knows what she is talking about! The key to Lo Mein is the Dark Soy sauce flavored with Mushrooms. It's incredibly awesome! I've used chicken stock to loosen the sauce up before but I prefer water. Chicken Stock or Chicken broth, for me anyway, is way too much sodium when mixed with soy sauce and oyster sauce.
@@dianabernardo-mendez2705 yeah, I've kinda moved beyond using chicken broth or even water. I don't add either anymore. Personally it gives the Lo Mein a chicken noodle soup type of base flavor. You'd think it wouldn't be noticeable with soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil and Dark soy sauce but I can taste the difference.
This looks DELICIOUS 🤤 I’m gonna try it this Friday!!! UPDATE: I made this yesterday and it was the best Lo Mein I’ve had! It was gone within minutes because everyone wanted some. Thank you Tess!!
G F Tear the fried noodles into pieces and cut them into segments; ② Heat oil in a wok until it is 30.5% hot. Put the noodles in the deep fried crispy sauce and remove for later use. Add the oil and stir fry the beef until cooked. Pour out and filter out the oil. Put the onion, ginger and beef into the pot, mix the Shaoxing wine with the thicken soup, starch and oyster sauce to thicken the sauce, put the fried noodles into the pot and toss them on the plate. you can try this tradition chinese muslim noodle delicious as lo mein
I love the fact that you can also use spaghetti noodles as well. It makes this recipe feel more flexible and not so limited in what you can use to make it.
My absolute favorite from my local Chinese Kitchen is Vegetable Lo Mein. I call it "Chinese Spaghetti" they put broccoli, cabbage, carrot, water chestnuts and mushrooms in it. I don' t miss the meat. I can't wait to try this recipe.
I've made it three times and it was wonderful every time. 16 ounces of lo mein noodles make two large meals for us. It microwaves well, too. We use four cloves of fresh garlic, the white of three green onions, some green cabbage, and matchstick cuts of carrots and celery. Stick with the sauce recipe even if it means a trip to the Chinese market. We serve with egg rolls and/or orange chicken. Thank you for sharing this easy, fantastic recipe, Tess!
I love to use fresh chopped ginger, sesame oil, & pickled red pepper with garlic. I love stir frys, especially with freshly cooked chunks of chicken breasts, & shrimp, salmon, & oysters. People swear i went to a cordon bleu school, but i get inventive when i am hungry! Besides; no one likes my cooking better than me.😃😋
I like making the whole bag of noodles at once. I make lo mein in the evening for dinner, then for a quick snack the next day, I mix the noodles with some thai peanut sauce and a wee bit of soy sauce, tahini and sesame oil and pop that in the fridge to thicken. A little cold veg on top and it's darn near identical to my local Chinese restaurant's "Cold Sesame Noodles"
I been single dad for almost 5 years and honestly not sure why or how i ended on your video but ever since the day i saw your video i was like, this is 2021 dish plate for my kids. "Thank You" GRACIAS
Great receipe. Mmmmmm 5 star !! *I changed order slightly for my preference* , I like dark noodles but light coloured veg Stir fried veg in garlic ginger oil. Removed to plate. Stir fried noodles with extra oil and lo-mein sauce THEN mixed so noodles coated THEN added cooked veg back. Quick mix, so veg not dark looking...mix was amazing just like takeaway !! (Optional) added big pinch of sugar and mixed as garnish....really adds a sweet note for dish to be extra special. The lo-mein sauce is perfect... *THIS IS THE RECEIPE TO KEEP FOR LIFE !!!*
Just tried this and my wife and kids loved it. I couldn’t find any dark soy sauce but it still turned out wonderful… thanks. I was unclear on how much vegetables to put in so I just improvised.
I made this tonight for dinner and it turned out amazing! It was easy and the measurements were on point! Thank you for sharing. It was my first time making lo mein!
These cooking videos normally upset me . I have to pause and play back , most don't tell you everything they put in ... I understood you perfectly , your voice was clear and you spoke at a nice pace so I could follow along . I'm going shopping and trying this recipe out tomorrow tonight . Thank you !!! Can't wait to check out the rest of your videos
Thank you so much, I didn't quite have everything but I found a way to make it work and it's still the best lo mein I've had. Better than any frozen lo mein, I'm so happy and can't wait till I get the few items I don't have.
I was planning on spending $15 on a large lo mein and I know I'd of ordered the works which would cost me about $40 for a family of 3. I think I'll keep my $40 and do it for well, free at home as I already have the ingredients. TY for the recipe.
Tess, it's obvious that you are a connoisseur of lo mein, both cooking it and dining on it! Your recipe and tips are invaluable! Thanks so much for a luscious recipe!
This is my favorite recipe..I've made it several times and the family requests it regularly. I'm back again, because the fam requested it again :D thanks so much for sharing!
Omg just made it and it's absolutely delicious!! My bamboo shoots were a little hard tho, probably bc I didn't cook them long enough (I started burning the celery 😅) Thanks for sharing your recipe!! 😋
It's a chinese noodle dish. Of course spaghetti doesnt go well with fresh veggies. That's why the taste isn't right. SpAghetti and tuna added cheese; Whereas Lo mein veggies and soy sauce. Hillbilly do you live near th mountains, west virginia? Me frm malaysia.
Thank you Tess! Excellent! My Lo Mein came out much better than I expected!!! My 12 y/o Son thought it was from a restaurant, it tasted so great! I was even surprised and couldn't believe I cooked it, tasted like it was professionally made!!! You described the cooking process & ingredients perfectly! I also used the same sauces and noodle from the same producers. Went to a Chinese Supermarket to get them, including my Wok and Utensils. Your recipe is probably the best out there...Thanks again!!! 🤤🤤🤤 PS: I added Chicken and seasoned it using the same sauces + Corn Starch, and letting it marinate for 30 Mins. I couldn't find whether you had done a Chicken Lo Mein dish or not...😉🍜
I love it, thank you for let it as know how your Country makes delicius food, I will star cooking my favor and this is the reason why I check this video.
Made this tonight and it was delicious! Couldn't find the bamboo stuff but the mung bean sprouts were right by the refrigerated noodles so I grabbed that. Had everything else but also my store didn't carry dark soy or mushroom soy so I substituted 1 tbsp of regular soy and it still tasted amazing!!
I know this is an old post but for those reading through the comments (it's not far down in the comment section) there is a solution to not having dark soy sauce available or on hand at any given time. Just need to use a couple ingredients you probably already have on hand. Regular soy sauce, brown sugar, or regular sugar, molasses, etc. There are plenty of recipes online to make your own dark soy sauce, I've done it many times with different combinations of ingredients. They have all worked. They may not get the sauce as dark but they do get the taste and thickness of dark soy which is the most important thing about dark soy sauce. :)
That made my mouth water I think I’m going to make some with some spaghetti noodle instead I am not going out there to get lo mein noodles right now . Thank you for sharing. !!!Yummy !!!
Starving because I'm nursing a monster! I just made the recipe. Delicious! Was a tad salty for me because I'm not used to it, but with a little more water and mmmmmm! Quick fix. Everything about it was delicious, thank you for your recipe!!
I just made this lo mein recipe and it was delicious! Thank you! (Well, actually, I watched all your lo mein videos and the links you provided and did an amalgam.) I’ve made lo mein plenty of times and it never came out quite as good as this time around. I’m in Copenhagen, and I’ve not been able to find the Pearl River brand dark mushroom soy here (much to my dismay, because I love it!). So I substituted a mixture of plain dark soy with the lighter, thinner, Thai mushroom soy and was able to achieve that smokey flavor. I doubled the recipe (cooking in batches, with a clean wok every time), and I somehow used just a bit too much ginger for my taste buds, but everyone else loved it, and I know that this will be my go-to lo mein recipe from now on. (As a tip for anyone watching in Europe: I think that, generally, the type of ginger they sell most at the Asian markets and grocery stores here has a markedly stronger acidic flavor than what we typically get in U.S. markets. So to achieve the flavors of many American-Chinese recipes, it may be a good idea to reduce the ratio of ginger to garlic? The smaller ginger roots in Europe are often quite pungent. For all I know, this is true in the U.S., too, but...) Again, thank you, Tess! Love it! This was a great vid. And I subscribed.
There are lots of lo mein recipes on RU-vid but you make it very simple. But I do like my carrots and bok choy and celery cut at an angle like they do it in the Chinese restaurants. I never go out for Mexican, Greek, or Italian, because mine is better! Chinese is the one cuisine I have not mastered, but now I’m ready, because your video makes it simple. Thank you Tess, I bought everything for this recipe. And I make mine meatless, it taste so much better that you can taste all the veggies.
My absolute favorite. Lo mein. Yummy. I love shrimp, chicken, pork, lobster, and lots of veggies. I must try the fish sauce and mushroom sauce. Yours looks delicious. You did a great job. Love the pound of noodles. Must find them. Thankyou Tess.❤
Wow super yum, just made this. Note to all do not try and mix in 2 lbs of chow mien to all the veggies and whatever else you put in. Super hard to manage but totally worth it. Make in smaller batches:) TY for the crazy good recipe :)
This is absolutely the best Lo Mein I have ever eaten bar none. Your recipe is incredible. I had it yesterday and again today. Thanks so much for sharing it with us. You are a very fine cook indeed!!
Just happened across this recipe, and it is exactly what I needed. I've tried to wing it a couple of times, not really knowing how to cook Lo Mein. This looks easy and now I'll give it a try. And when are we going to get laptops that provide aroma laced videos? I swear, I could just about smell the meal!
Thanks, I decided today I want to do crab ragoons and sesame lo mein noodles. Came across this video. I will be making this today for dinner. My son luvs Nothing But Noodles Sesame Lo Mein noodles. I can't wait!
The best is, having the left overs in a sandwich the next day. The butter adds something to the taste and makes the noodles on the sandwich shine. It’s one of my favourite things
LOOKING GOOOD! I just did this RECEIPE for my husband's Immitation Crabs he wanted with Lo Mein Noodles 😎 I actually used some Red Cabbage I'm experimenting with these days tehehe! Looks so yum 😋 Thx Much MS. TESS!
I made this last night and it was easy, simple and delicious (better than takeout). I think the secret is the sauce and I too don’t like my sauce sweet. The veggies I used: regular cabbage, Napa cabbages, half red sweet pepper, half onion, garlic, green onions and sprouts.
This recipe is so easy and it's the best. I tried it myself and it's so tasty. The Mushroom sauce is what did it, it's not a sauce that comes immediately to mind. Also to stir in the noodles in 2 batches is the best too. Thank you.
thank you for the recipe, I needed something quick, and with the quarantine and all this seemed good, I added diced chicken, and didn't add the mushroom cause i didn't have any, but it was the best lomain i've had. Thank you
Thank you I made this yesterday my eidh there wad not even left overs this dish is so damn delicious in going go make more by request of my family thank you for sharing this amazing recipe 👍
I cannot believe i finally found out what the noodles name is. It took me my whole life testing so many noodles but i never found these specific noodles they have in the restaurants lol
