Light an Fluffy Homemade Noodles
This is a family recipe from way back. I remember my mom making these on a Sunday. She would make them with the broth from a roast baked hot and tender in the oven. I do not use a pasta machine to make these I want them to puff up in the broth. You can make them into strips like I did or little squares as a dumpling of sort. The thing to remember to do is put them in the refrigerator for an hour before cooking. I make a well with my flour and very slowly and precisely keep going with my fork or hand bring that flour into the whipped eggs. The sides of your bowl should have a ring of dry flour around it as you go until you combine it all together. Hopefully this makes sense. Beat your eggs first before putting them into the flour "well". Do not mix together for a long time it doesn't have to be perfectly mixed and the more you do this the harder the noodles will turn out. So, a light hand. with the mixture. I roll mine out onto more flour so it doesn't stick to your board or counter.
Mine are never perfect looking that's how the kids always know they are homemade they say.
Here is my well
See the dry flour around the edge as I am incorporating it together.
All mixed but you can still see some flour, that is okay as you roll it out that will come together.
Put flour on your board and rolling pin.
I roll mine to about 1/8" thick.
I use a pizza cutter to cut my strips.
They are delicious.
