Noodles
Homemade noodles are so easy and such a treat. My mom never makes them and she always tells me “you sound like my mother, “homemade noodles are so easy”” Well, my brother Ben and I have picked up the tradition! I guess this is one of those things that skips a generation. It’s 3 simple ingredients that make any pasta extra special by making your own noodles!
1 cup Flour
2 Eggs
Pinch of Salt
Whisk together flour and salt. Create a well in the middle.
Crack eggs into the well. Using a fork, whisk eggs allowing flour to mix into the dough slowly. Stir until a dough forms. The dough will be sticky.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough until it becomes smooth and shiny.
Run through a pasta machine or you can use a rolling pin and roll the dough to desired thickness. Use the pasta machine with the desired pasta cutter or use a pizza cutter to cut into noodles.
To cook, bring 3 quarts of water and 1 teaspoon salt to a boil. Add the noodles to the boiling water and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Drain well, then add to your sauce.
