From the Test Kitchen

This takeout classic gets a gourmet upgrade from fresh lo mein noodles, whose delightfully springy texture is perfectly complemented by our sweet and savory sauce and bits of tender beef. A garnish of crunchy cashews tossed with furikake (a Japanese-style seaweed seasoning) finishes the dish.
