About Lo mein

Lo Mein is a popular dish originating from Chinese cuisine, featuring soft, stir-fried egg noodles tossed with a savory sauce typically made of soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Common ingredients include a mix of vegetables such as carrots, cabbage, or bell peppers, and proteins like chicken, beef, shrimp, or tofu. While Lo Mein offers a hearty balance of carbohydrates, protein, and fiber from the vegetables, its nutritional profile can vary. Traditional preparation methods often involve high sodium levels from the sauces and oil content from stir-frying. Choosing whole-grain noodles, incorporating lean proteins, and minimizing added oils can make it a healthier option. Packed with bold flavors and customizable ingredients, Lo Mein is a beloved comfort food that can be adapted to suit a variety of dietary needs.
