since its flour based, you can try a stir fry like somebody suggested above.

I typically like to just stir fry some sliced beef chicken or pork in some soil + garlic chili sauce, combine with noodles and green onions,

you can add thinly sliced carrots, onions, or whatever veggies you like if you want.

and serve.

you can try doing chinese style beef noodle soup or duck noodle soup but that typically takes a long period of slowcooking the meat which you might not want to try your first time out.

I will try thanks!

I think I was looking for Egg Noodles when I went but I got flour by accident.

They taste a little different than what I'm used to. But the whole grocery store has Mandarin everywhere so I was a bit overwhelmed.

I am on a mission to incorporate Eastern food into my diet.

I think all great food should be treated equally, and that people should not be judged by the color of the food they eat, but by the content of their stomachs.

And by equally I just mean I want to eat everything. I used to work in a factory with people from all over the world.

My "Chinese mom" made me real pork fried rice with eggs, pork, etc. and it was the greatest thing ever. Nothing like "American Chinese Food" as she called it.

Polish people gave me pickle soup and perogies. Mexican's made me some food I can't even pronounce but it was very good.

On a semi-related note, I get sticky rice from an ex co-worker. She's Thai.

Now, she gave me a present, it's a bamboo stick with sticky rice paste inside of it and it's frozen.

Yep. That's it. I have no idea what to do with it. Anyone know what it is or what to do with it?

I'm not that familiar with thai cooking but I believe you steam that.

You should ask her.

you know you boil the noodles first and then stir fry right for lo mein right?

Its common sense but I just want to make sure.

I believe the type of noodle you have is the type they make Chow Mein with. which is deep fried noodles with some kind of meat/veggie sauce poured on top but you probably don't want to deal with deep frying in your home.

Of course I would do that if I could but I can't.

Since I left work to go back to school, I no longer have an I.D. or my Key Fob to unlock the doors anymore. The security guards would not let me in even if I tried.

I boil shrimp with my instant noodles.
