History and origins

Lo mein, a local noodle dish from Ina City, Nagano Prefecture, was first created by Banri in 1955. At a time when refrigerators were not yet commonplace, storing fresh Chinese noodles in the summer was difficult, so the idea was to steam the noodles. This resulted in a texture and shelf life that was never seen before. The recipe is based on a soup, but there is also a fried noodle version made with mutton and vegetables without soup. If mutton is unavailable, pork can also be used. It is said that the name "lo mein" became popular as a contraction of "char lo mein," which is a combination of "cha" (fried) = "char," "meat" = "lo" and "men" = "men."
