INGREDIENTS (Makes 1.6 lbs of Noodles)
450 g 1 lb of all-purpose flour
4-5 large-size eggs
1 tsp of salt
1/3 cup of cornstarch to prevent stickiness
INSTRUCTIONS
Combine the salt and all-purpose flour thoroughly. Bread flour is the best to make noodles because it has a higher protein content. Lo Mein noodles are full egg noodles. Egg contains lots of protein, which improves the texture of the dough, so it is ok to use all-purpose flour in this recipe.
Crack 4-5 large eggs into the flour and knead for 10 minutes or until a smooth and non-sticky dough forms (if using a KitchenAid, run on medium speed for 10 minutes). Every egg and brand of flour is different. Suggest using 4 eggs first and reserving one on the side to adjust the texture. To check if the dough consistency is correct. Use a clean and dry hand to grab a piece of dough and squeeze tightly. Then release; If the dough falls off immediately, the consistency is correct; If the dough sticks to your hand, add more all-purpose flour to adjust.
The next step is to roll the dough into sheets. I am using KitchenAid. Cut the dough into a few manageable pieces and flatten each piece so they can go through the machine easier. Put on the pasta roller attachment. Let the dough go through the machine; start with the thickest setting. It will come out rough with a jagged edge. Just fold the sheet in half and feed it through the machine a few times until the surface is smooth. Then gradually lower the thickness and continue to feed the sheet through the machine until it reaches your desired thickness. For lo mein noodles, I normally use level 3 on this Kitchenaid as the final thickness.
Apply a generous amount of cornstarch on the sheet. Using wheat flour only prevents the noodles from sticking for a short time because gluten tends to connect to each other. Cornstarch doesn’t contain any gluten, so it will separate the noodles for a long time.
Switch the attachment to the noodle cutter and feed the sheet through. Coat the noodles with more cornstarch so the cut surfaces don't stick to each other. Due to the egg content, these noodles can only stay good in the fridge for 2 days, but you can freeze them for up to 6 months.

No one commented yet? Wow! I will say this, the grocery stores in my area have no pastas on their shelves. It gives me an excuse to use my attachments now. But yes, saving any money with the inflation is worth it if you eat pasta often.
I really do appreciate the details you offer for example; "gluten tends to connect to each other corn starch doesn't contain any gluten so it will separated the noodles for a long time." It never occurred to me that this was the case.

Saving $4 a pound is definitely worth the labor (especially if you love noodles 😅). You also know what is in your food and it is fresh. Thank you for providing this recipe!
Homemade noodles taste so much better than store bought. So silky smooth!!
I completely agree with this. Most people don't realize how much better noodles are by making them from scratch and having them fresh because they are too lazy to actually do it, but the savings for doing it is definitely worth it even if you put the freshness to the side.I completely agree with this.

I love that you priced out the "make vs buy" angle to these noodles, as well as explained what to look for in making them and why you do what you do. Very helpful! Thank you. :)
Love this! The stores don't have a large supply of noodles now. Regardless, making homemade noodles is still very cost effective to do. Thank you so much! 💜
And homemade can taste better.
Thank you for taking the time to show us how to make fresh Egg Noodles, it does not appear to be too hard to make and in rough times you could really make your dollar stretch. I do agree that. It might be a little time consuming. But if you look at Justice savings alone, it's worth it, then add in the fact of how much better noodles taste when they are fresh. Again, thank you.
I love making them fresh. Lost art of basic living is a labor of love
Yes. And working with one’s hands makes one happy.
You've come such a long way. The new kitchen, lighting, cameras, sound quality, etc. Your production is night and day from where it was when you started. I've been following your channel for a while. Congrats and thank you for all the videos. Keep up the great work!!
Thank you for always watching my videos. Means a lot to me.
Mandy
Wow! Your recipe is "identical" to my Mom and her 2 sisters egg noodle.
They would make 20lb flour worth of noodles at a time. They covered the furniture in a cabin with bed sheets to let the noodles dry. Noodles on the beds , chairs, tables and couches. Wonderful memories.
Thank you ❤️
My buddy used to make huge batches of perogies. They were on every bit of available counterspace. Those were the days.
so they would leave them out to dry like that....interesting. How long did it take for the noodles to dry out and how did it taste after
I remember bedsheets on the backs of chairs to dry noodles.
What I love most about your videos is, everytime I have a question about why we are doing something, you answer it with a perfect explanation. It really makes your videos great. I can't wait to make these.
Mandy, I also bought the pasta attachments for my Kitchen Aid stand mixer because I love making homemade pasta but my arthritic hands say otherwise. Necessity truly is the mother of invention.
Dear Mandy, I have an arthritis problem, due to old age, and I've found using either a food processor, or the "pasta" cycle on a bread machine a great help in making the doughs for noodles and/or dumplings. (A food processor is also very good for dumpling filling preparation, to get the consistency right.)
Food processor will form a dough?i will try this
Yes, I use it for all sorts of doughs -- Indian breads like paratha or roti, biscuit or scones, pie crusts.
Oh my! I used this recipe to make my first noodles ever. They were fantastic! I've had the attachments and other noodle accessories for almost 9 months and just had the time and nerve all at once, I hate to fail at anything. THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this video!
If you measure the flour and egg by grams, it will account for any moisture and size of the eggs and you will be able to provide a standardized recipe. Just a tip :)
Humidity can still vary the amount of moisture in the flour. It still comes down to a keen eye for the consistency of the dough.
Making noodles at home is the best, and always cheaper and healthier than processed pastas with preservatives. The bonus is that they're a blast to make and kids love to help - great snow-day family project!! Thank you Mandy!
The point you bring up about whether it is worth it or not is on point! For people who eat pasta at the same rate of rice or bread will understand that.
Mandy you are an amazing teacher! Thank you for sharing this recipe, can't wait to try!
I have just recently discovered your website and I'm very happy to meet you. I love that I now know how to make noodles and also have the choice to save money. Your style of giving instructions is excellent, very easy to understand and follow. I look forward to trying the other recipes I have already watched. I love chinese food so much I can't seem to get enough of it. I am not Asian but I was taught how to eat with chopsticks when I was 5 years old by Mr. Fong himself and I have been useing chopsticks for over 6 decades. I can't live without them either. Especially when I eat a salad.
I make all sorts of pasta not to save money but to control the process. If I factored in my labor prior to retirement, it certainly wouldn't be cost effective. I started making my own lo mein noodles a while ago because the Asian grocery I go to tends to quickly sell out of the fresh noodles. Like you I make enough to freeze but tbh they rarely last 2 weeks let alone 6 moonths. And thank you for the effort you put into your videos. I'm no stranger to the kitchen as I do all the cooking for the 2 of us and have been at it for decades. However, when watching your videos I always come away learning something new.
You are one of the very best food instructors on U-Tube 非常感谢
I like the idea of making fresh a few times a year and freezing the noodles. The store bought are very expensive and are like plastic. Well worth it for fresh. Thank you for the video
Thanks for sharing. I have followed your videos to make noodles from scratch and since then I’ve never had to buy noodles again. It taste soooo good.
Once again, this was a fantastic and helpful learning experience. I like the cost breakdown as well. I am in a camp that is all about working harder, saving money, and eating fresher, healthier food. Bravo, sweet girl! Keep em coming.
I live in a food wilderness and have arthritis too. I make everything from scratch. Thankyou so much for this. The corn starch information was very helpful.
I have a kitchen aid but don’t have the pasta, noodle attachments. I guess this is a good excuse for me to buy the attachments to save a few dollars from buying noodles from the store 😊!! Love your videos. Thanks for sharing with us.
Mandy, your recipes for noodles, dumpling wrappers, and similar items, especially those made in a stand mixer, have saved me so much time, energy, and arthritis pain.
The other important lesson was to use cornstarch or potato starch to dust the pasta sheets and formed noodles to prevent them from clumping together again. I’ll never forget the first time I made pasta sheets for ravioli and because I stacked them together after only dusting them with all purpose flour, the sheets all stuck together and I had to start all over again with my pasta roller. So thank you again, you’ve taught me well.
What a great video! I love your channel; you’re such a great presenter, and always informative, entertaining, and practical.
I have a KitchenAid, but haven’t got any additional attachments. I might just had to remedy that. They are pricey, but likely worth it for me. I make almost everything from scratch, but have never tried my hand at noodles or pasta. You make me want to change that!
I got the 3 attachment bundle from Williams Sonoma for $150
Thank you for explaining how to use the KitchenAid attachments. I have the stand mixer, but never bought attachments because I couldn't figure them out. You made it look easy, and now I'm thinking about getting some.
I'm happy to see you because you make it looks like simple and easy. I've made dumpling in easy way after I saw your video. I think it's not only about the process of food but I feel calm, focus and deep mind when I practiced it every detail of your's home made. Good luck for you 😍
I'll never make this, but I've dropped a like cos I've made a few of your recipes and enjoyed them very much!
Thank YOU , I really enjoy your Instruction ... And Yes today it is worth it !!!!
I liked the corn starch tip. Thanks
Inflation is terrible but if it forces people to make their own but Soup Up Recipes makes it all the better!
I just found your channel, and am very impressed with your thoughtful and concise teaching style. These lo mein noodles look delicious and fun to make. Thank you for sharing!
Love your videos. Sorry to hear about your arthritis and will be praying for you.
I started watching your videos and still am going down the list of watching them, and you have no idea how much I appreciate them soo much. I love watching them and being educated on authentic Chinese food. I am a foodie and I do like to cook, so this is giving me motivation to try to make some of these to get out of my comfort zone☺️
One has to admit Kitchen Aid is the best, like you precious lady. 😇
You did amazing job, Mandy!!
I really like these videos, straight to the point and informative, not leaving out the things you need to know
yup!!
I agrre
Mandy I hope that you and your family are safe and you didn't have much damage from the storm ❤️ 🙏 ..... love from Arizona
Thank you.
Always a treat to watch your videos Mandy and learn something new everytime 👍👍
❤🎉 If a person loves to create labour is never any effort. I am 60 yo, not to old to learn and wil definitely make this noodles. You explain in detail and that helps to make no mistakes. Thank you from South Africa...
Love your channel. I also make homemade Noodles when I want something special. So much tastier than store bought. I am retired so I have the time now and I make it completely by hand. Love rolling out the dough and see it becoming this beautiful smooth sheet.
But I still keep a few boxes of store bought pasta because it’s so convenient.
Definitely depends on the individual's situation. As I am back in Asia for the next few years, there isn't much issue getting my hands on good fresh and instant noodles. But should I find myself in Europe again in the future, will definitely come in handy. Bookmarking this. Thanks, Mandy!!
Thank you! Homemade is always worth the labor 🥰
Those attachments for the Kitchen Aid mixer are a significant investment, but if you have arthritis and make a lot of noodles and pasta, they sure are nice. If you have friends and relatives who have the stand mixers, consider sharing a variety of attachments.
Thank you Mindy!! This is awesome! Since I moved from Atlanta to New Mexico, I have had access to an Asian market. I'm so grateful!!
I love making breads, rolls and other pastries. It's about time I tried pasta. I don't have a Kitchenaid or bread machine. Everything by hand. Great therapy.
I finally got my own house with a big kitchen and the first thing I bought was a KitchenAid mixer with attachments. I've been looking at the pasta attachment for a while and now I know what I'm going to do with it!
If you decide to buy a grinder attachment, buy an all metal one. I had the plastic one and put it into the fridge to cool it to help keep the meat cold during the grind. The plastic cracked around the metal bearing. This crack was too small to clean, thus increasing the risk of food contamination. That grinder was replaced with a #12 meat grinder. Well worth the extra cost because it grinds 10X faster.
This recipe is an extra buy a mixer. Never used your brand but when I worked in college foodservice, we used the huge Hobart stand mixers with attachments, back in in the late 80''s- early 90's. I just have to think small scale. 😁
This is amazing. I tend to avoid ramen because of the added chemicals. This lo mein recipe looks much more wholesome.
Ramen with these noodles would be great .
since homemade tastes so much better and it's cheaper it's totally worth it!
Thank you Miss Mandy. I love fresh noodles for lomein and beef soups. I’ve been trying your simple way of making Chinese foods. I learned a great deal in Basic Chinese foods cooking when I used to work for a family in Hong Kong in the 90’s. I love Chinese foods home made not restaurant made.
Helpful tip: Put the Cornstarch in a towel, and make a "Powder Puff" out of it, and you can easily spread the cornstarch on the pasta to keep it from sticking
I love Lo mein noodles!!! No KitchenAid but it's on my Christmas list w/attachments.
I made these often when I was a kid. Child labor! 🤣It was actually kind of fun -- like playing with Play-Doh, but you can eat it when you're done. 😁 In my case the noodles were pasta fresca, not lo mein, even though it's the same recipe and made the same way... We had a hand cranked machine.
Have a KitchenAid mixer but only a hand crank pasta machine I can use with your recipes. Yes, it is worth it even though I do not eat a lot of noodles yet. That probably will change though since I will be able to make my own noodles now. We only have one small local grocery store and they never have a selection of noodles other than the few common ones. It is very special when we can make our own. Love your demonstrations because you make everything so clear about what to aim for.
in general i do eat noodle dishes a lot and recently i have been looking for lo mein recipes, then this video falls into my recommendations...i feel like this is fate!
overall, a very good video, i certainly enjoyed listening to the process and the final statement :)
just discovered your channel and I'm binging, YOU'RE AMAZING!!!
Beautiful! Thank you for posting such helpful, detailed videos! The Souped-Up wok I bought two+ years ago is my #1 cooking pan. Thank you for that as well. (I bought another as a gift, too)
you know your stuff. You are genuine too. I like that.
Thanks Mandy for this video. I dont have a kitchen aid yet. I like how the noodles you made. They turned out very nice.
this was packed full of helpful tips and just plain useful information. don't think i'll ever buy noodles again
I have those attachments, never used them. Cool excuse to get it out and run a batch. Thanks
Yes. Past year not only are pasta varieties wiped out in supermarket but, seems like "bird nest" tupe noodles don't exist anywhere, use to be thin and thick bird nest types with spinach or regular flavor
If you dont mind me asking where are you where noodles are hard to purchase? I haven't seen any news about it and I haven't encountered this issue where I live. I do have a lot of cultural shops around me and I shop there. I don't know if they are just having better luck or if there is a difference between them and the large grocery stores. They stock different brands. I live in the USA, west coast.
Nothing beats handmand noodles, when done well ^.^
I'm in Alabama USA. I shop at one Asian grocery store in GA, they have more rice noodles and other...super expensive. All walmarts here seem to be wiped out all the time with the pasta varieties.
Lo mein noodles and i love them so much God bless asia for these delicious noodles one of the best things made
Only for fans of noodles im sure many love other stuff too 😂😂😂
I agree with you save money, use materials I wanted and come out tasty thanks
I always make my own pasta and have the attachments plus the Kitchen Aid attachment with the extruder for those pastas you can’t make by hand. I also have the Pasta Queen hand cranked pasta maker, so I’m all set to go. Yes, it is cheaper and so easy, with or without eggs, regular flour, wheat or 00 flour. I get such gratification making my own pasta because fresh pasta is the best. Little ingredients but big results. Now let’s go make some great sauce to go with it and pig out!!
Excellent explanation and demostration.
I have everything to make noodles but never had a recipe, this came out Great ! Not much time and well worth it ! The taste is way better the store bought and i know exactly whats in it ! ! Is there a proper way to cook them? I've seen numerous videos of oriental cooking noodles and most all rinse the noodles after they are cooked. GREAT Recipes on how to cook em ! !
Today, homemade noodles 1 lb were $8 in NJ!
This is my noodle recipe! It’s interesting how the same recipe makes noodles for several different cuisines. Mine was the same as my mom and my grandma but they rolled by hand. Something I could never get quite right. Either way they are a family favorite, they just taste so much better than dried pasta. Definitely still a labor of love but so worth it. I use a Mercato atlas to roll and cut. But use my kitchen aid or my food processor to make the dough. My arthritis screams about it so they know when I make noodles for them it’s something special.
Hi Mandy another great video, just to let you know, l took delivery of a 4kg box of this type of noodle today , from Amazon Prime, it cost me £18 and some change, l was made up with them being so cheap ,as here in the UK where l live there is no Asian market, also buying a attachment for my Kenwood mixer is a great big expensive up grade l could not afford. Keep safe and happy bad😊🌹
Definitely making them at home, making a big batch to save time, and saving money. Most of store bought noodles/pastas contain certain amount of preservatives to prolong the noodles' shelve life, however, by ingesting preservatives will not prolong our life... just a thought.
Love these noodles! My local international mart stopped carrying the brand of noodles I prefer for using in Lo Mein. Now I’m spoiled by these and couldn’t go back to store-bought!
Hey, if it cost more to make noodles than to buy them t you would still be ahead. You can't quantify the satisfaction of working with your own hands, cooking is a joy. Next time I make your beef noodle soup I will be making it with your noodles.
I always like to do it myself, if I can... regardless if it costs cheaper or not... thanks Mandy...
wonderful! I do want to try this. I live in a rural area where access to Asian foods is very, very limited. Having this recipe will make noodle-life so much easier.
With the kitchen aid tools amazing work !👍❤
That red machinery is awesome 👍
I used to be able to buy eggs for $1.99 a dozen. Now, on sale, I can find them for $3.59 for 18. That's an increase from 16 cents per egg to 20 cents per egg, and I truly believe that what they are calling grade A large are not large, but medium. Still, it's one of the cheapest and easiest to find proteins, and I love pasta. Definitely going to try this. I usually make spinach linguine for my spaghetti sauce, but I have been adding noodles to Asian dishes lately as a change from rice.
the cost of eggs doubled since last year in my area so I feel you.
Love this! I've been making so many more things at home from my sweetened condensed milk to my breads to all of your better than takeout recipes. I've even figured out how to take one thing of live culture buttermilk and make my own at home. The one I bought 3 months ago has kept me in buttermilk since without having to buy anymore. Appreciate any and all things for home. While I know all about savings... it still saves money if I've already got everything needed rather than making an extra trip to the store, buying the one item and possibly picking up a few extras I didn't need.
Have a wonderful day :-)
❤❤❤❤ wow just wow I love noodles but it's too expensive in Jamaican to buy are take out. So this is my new best friend thank you for sharing 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
very good video , I am totally going to make these noodles .
Yes yes it makes a big difference, thank you kindly young lady for this class, now I can make my own noodles and know what is in them. Thank you God bless you always.
I would rather eat the homemade, fresh noodles. It’s important to learn the skills to cook with the most basic ingredients. It’s not only less expensive, in my opinion, it’s more healthy ,satisfying and dependable.
Thanks so much for all you helpful information.
Ste šikovná,dakujem za recept,Slovensko
Very interesting! I especially like it from the "home-made cool" aspect. I also have a KitchenAid stand mixer, but would have to buy the two pasta attachments.
The three piece set for my KA just arrived from Amazon. Cost $139.00 CAD.
@@vmitchinson I just bought one 3 piece set off Ebay for $71 (with shipping).
Listed as "used", but looks new to me. I'm guessing it was actually "open box", which Ebay requires to be listed as used. Can't wait to try!
So good 👍
I'd love to see a video like this for (gluten free) rice noodles 🍜
Love your videos so so educational and entertaining.
Great video. You make it look easy, so now I will try. I have all the attachments. Eggs in my community cost about $.30 each. I don't know what noodles cost, but I would make them because I don't want to go to the store to buy them. I do love the cost break down comparison. PLEASE DO IT FOR ALL YOUR MEALS. For example, Kung Pao chicken at my local restaurant cost $16 and serves about 3 and there's 5 in my family. When we order other meals, (ie 1 or 2 more items) take home cost about $65. In Joshua Weissman's video he does a great cost break down. Thank you.
Worth it. Make a ton and freeze it. Then laugh at the inflated prices. I won't pay the inflated prices!
I recently purchased the pasta attachments for my KitchenAid, so I will definitely be making these. Since they look so easy to make, I might scale my recipe down to 1 egg with the appropriate amount of flour, and make them fresh each time.
I thought your recipe was Great! It’s worth it for Sure to make it at home. I think if you have ready made noodles in the freezer already, then I’d be more inclined to cook one of your delicious lo mein recipes more often! The KitchenAid is so great and the attachments like the pasta extruder are Soo helpful and make the work very easy. I have to get the sheet roller attachment as I have the Atlas you have to crank from Italy for 30 years! Making macaroni/noodles is Always a fun thing to do with kids too. Thank you for being interested in all our economics. If it saves money? It’s good for us. I hope your hands feel less tightness and pain Mandy. 😢
I like these kinda noodles done but I like them a little fried too. Like a well done pizza or wings that alittle burnt but nice and juicy under the skin
I want to make my own noodles, because I don't like all the preservatives the factories use. Thank you for another awesome video!
I wish I had that Kitchen aid! haha! Great tips thank you!
This will be useful. Time to buy some pasta rollers. I'll make the money back quickly with how much I love noodles.
