Lo Mein Noodles
Lo mein noodles are a Chinese wheat-based pasta characterized by their thick, chewy texture and golden-yellow color from alkaline water treatment. These enriched noodles are fortified with iron and B vitamins, providing a concentrated source of carbohydrates for energy while lacking the fiber of whole-grain alternatives. Typically boiled before stir-frying with vegetables and proteins, they form the foundation of the popular takeout dish but require gluten-free alternatives for those with wheat sensitivities.
