    From the Test Kitchen

    This dish gets its gourmet flair 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 togarashi (a Japanese cuisine-favorite seasoning) finishes the dish.

Wash and dry the broccoli; cut off and discard the bottom 1/2 inch of the stem, then cut the broccoli into small florets. Halve, peel, and thinly slice the onion. Roughly chop the cashews. Place in a bowl. Add the togarashi and a drizzle of olive oil; stir to thoroughly coat. In a separate bowl, combine the soy glaze, black bean-chile sauce, vinegar, and 1/4 cup of water.

Add the seasoned beef and sliced onion in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the beef is browned and just cooked through. Turn off the heat.
