National Chop Suey Day
August 29, 2025-August 29, 2025 -
USA, USA
National Chop Suey Day has been created so that we can pay honor to this delicious dish. Let’s get one thing straight, though: chop suey and chow mein are not the same. A lot of people get these dishes confused.
One of the main differences between the two dishes is the way that noodles are added to the dish. In chow mein, the recipe calls for the noodles to be added to the meat, vegetables, and cooking sauces.
However, in chop suey, the mixture of sauce, meat, and vegetables is going to be served over fried noodles or rice (or both) that have already been cooked.
This dish has become so popular that it is not only a prominent part of Chinese culture, but it has become an important part of many different types of cuisines around the world.
This includes Polynesian cuisine, Indian Chinese, cuisine, German Chinese cuisine, Canadian Chinese cuisine, Filipino Chinese cuisine, and American Chinese cuisine.
