Just wanted to try and make my own egg noodles. Sure, they are cheap, but I googled and made some.
Ingredients
* 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 pinch salt
* 2 eggs, beaten
* 1/2 cup milk
* 1 tablespoon butterDirections
1. In a large bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Add the beaten egg, milk, and butter. Knead dough until smooth, about 5 minutes. Let rest in a covered bowl for 10 minutes.
2. On a floured surface, roll out to 1/8 or 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into desired lengths and shapes.
3. Allow to air dry before cooking.
4. To cook fresh pasta, in a large pot with boiling salted water cook until al dente.
I put some black pepper and a mega pinch of salt in there to increase the flavor.
Cooked the noodles in some beef broth
Pulled the noodles, made the gravy, and seared up some beef slices. Bit of lite sour cream and it was ready.
Pretty darn good. Not a huge improvement though. I should of made them shorter and thinner, but was a good first time and too easy.
