DIY Egg Noodles

Thanks to my husband I got this pasta maker and I can make noodles too. Making your own Egg Noodles is one of the best thing you can do! I am loving this machine

I N G R E D I E N T S

  • 1 large egg
  • enough water
  • 130 gr bread flours
  • 1/2 tsp salt

H O W T O P R E P A R E

T H E N O O D L E S

  • Crack and egg into a bowl and add enough water to get 65 gr
  • Mix a bit and set aside.
  • In another bowl, mix flour with salt
  • Then pour in egg mixture and mix
  • Using your hand, start kneading until everything comes together around 10 minutes. It’s a stiff and hard dough, give it time.
  • Make into a square, more or less and cover the dough with cling film
  • Rest for 30 minutes
  • Then bash using a rolling pin for another 10 minutes
  • This will help develop gluten without hard kneading
  • Cover with cling film and rest for 30 minutes
  • Roll the dough into 1-2 mm thick
  • Then cover both sides of the dough with generous amount of flour to prevent from sticking
  • Fold the dough into 4, without pressing it.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut into 2 mm strips
  • Then sprinkle more flour and toss to loosen the noodles.

B O I L I N G T H E N O O D L E S

  • Bring a pot of 6 3/4 cup water (1.7 liter) together with generous salt and
  • 2tsp of baking soda to a boil
  • Place in the noodles and cook for 2-3 minutes or until fully cooked
  • Drain noodles and rinse under cold water.
  • Drizzle with some oil and toss the noodles together to prevent from sticking. Ready to be used in your favourite recipe.
  • Enjoy!

N O T E S

  • Do not add more water when you see the dough is hard while kneading. It’s supposed to be like that. Just keep on kneading and it will come together.
  • Weight ratio of flour to egg water is 2:1
  • When boiling the noodles, start with 1tsp baking soda and adjust to your liking
  • Keep well in the fridge up to 3 days
