Chow Mein Noodles

Chow Mein Noodles

EverydayDry

Chow mein noodles are a wheat-based Chinese staple made from flour, water, and salt, dried for extended shelf stability. When boiled or stir-fried, they develop a firm, slightly chewy texture ideal for absorbing sauces in stir-fries and soups. These noodles provide a carbohydrate-rich base for meals but contain gluten, making them unsuitable for gluten-free diets. Their neutral flavor profile allows versatility in both traditional Asian dishes and modern fusion recipes.
