Ingredients of Homemade Egg Noodles
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1-2 tablespoons water
How to Make Homemade Egg Noodles
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
- Create a well in the center of the flour mixture and crack the eggs into it.
- Use a fork or whisk to beat the eggs and gradually mix in the flour until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a tablespoon or two of water until it comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it for 5-10 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. If you have a pasta roller, you can use it to make the noodles even thinner.
- Use a knife or pasta cutter to cut the noodles to your desired width.
- To cook the noodles, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the top and are cooked to your liking.
- Drain the noodles and serve with your favorite sauce or topping.
Enjoy your delicious homemade egg noodles!
