Dan Dan Noodles

Wheat noodles dressed in a sauce built from sesame paste, soy sauce, black vinegar, and chili oil, topped with pork mince cooked until slightly crispy and a scattering of crushed peanuts. This is the street food that gave Sichuan cuisine its international reputation. The heat is real, the numbing tingle from Sichuan pepper is the point, and the sauce comes together in the bowl โ€” not in a pan.

Egg Fried Noodles

Egg noodles, a hot pan, eggs, soy sauce, and whatever vegetables are in the fridge. This is Chinese weeknight food โ€” fast, loud, done in 20 minutes. The noodles need to be dry before they go in and the pan needs to be properly hot. Get those two things right and the rest follows.

Lo Mein

Soft egg noodles stir-fried with vegetables and protein in a glossy, savory sauce built on oyster sauce, light and dark soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and sesame oil. Lo mein (ๆž้ข) translates from Cantonese as 'stirred noodles' โ€” the name describes the cooking method, a scooping, tossing motion that coats every strand. Unlike chow mein, where the noodles are fried until crispy, lo mein noodles stay soft and slippery, coated in a thick, glossy sauce. The dark soy sauce is the detail that gives the dish its characteristic deep mahogany color; without it the dish looks pale. The sauce is premixed before the wok goes on โ€” lo mein moves fast.
