My mom’s egg noodles:

Ingredients:

4 eggs

1 1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

I make mine just on the counter without a bowl. Feel free to use a bowl if you wish.  Mix together flour and salt. make a well in the flour and add the eggs.

It takes a lot of muscle work to get it thin.

Keep working it and do not add much flour. The dough won’t really stick. I usually cut it in half when it starts to get big.

Once rolled, let it sit for 30 minutes.

You can cook in boiling water right away or continue to let them dry. I usually make mine in the morning and let them dry all day.  I have never tried to store them, I always make them and use them right away, to good to wait. #homemadeYUMMY
