HOMEMADE PASTA IN A FOOD PROCESSOR

Steps:

• Place flour and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade and pulse to combine.
• With the machine running, add eggs one at a time and blend after each addition. Add olive oil and process until dough looks like a coarse meal that comes together when pressed into a ball, about 10 seconds. Do not over-process. If the dough seems excessively sticky, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, processing just until incorporated.
• Lightly dust work surface and hands with flour. Turn dough out of food processor and knead until elastic and smooth, and no longer sticky, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Shape dough into a disk and cover with plastic wrap or an overturned bowl. Let rest for at least 1 hour at room temperature (or up to 1 day in refrigerator) before rolling. If the dough has been refrigerated, let stand at room temperature for about an hour before rolling and shaping.
• Cut the dough into 6 to 8 pieces. Flatten it into small rectangles to fit through a pasta machine.
• Keeping the dough lightly floured, roll the pieces through a pasta machine set at its widest opening. Keep rolling pasta through machine as progressively narrower settings, forming strips.
• Lay pasta strips on a lightly floured surface and keep covered with towels. One at a time, fold strips into a flat roll and slice crosswise into ribbons. Unfurl ribbons and transfer to a floured baking sheet. Slice lengthwise into long ribbons, about 1 1/2 inches wide, using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
• Cook pasta in boiling salted water for 2 to 4 minutes, until al dente. Drain and serve immediately.

EASY HOMEMADE EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• By Hand: Combine all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and crack in the eggs. Pour in the milk (start with 2 tablespoons and add more if the mixture is too dry). Using a fork, whisk the mixture until it is mostly combined. It will look shaggy and have some dry spots. At this point, ditch the fork and get in there with your hands. Lift and knead the dough 5-6 times until there are no dry spots remaining and the dough forms a soft, slightly sticky ball. Cover the bowl and let the dough rest for an hour (or up to a couple of days in the refrigerator).
• Food Processor: Combine all the dry ingredients and pulse a few times in the bowl of a food processor. With the motor running, add the eggs and mix until the dough is crumbly. Add the milk a tablespoon at a time until the dough forms a ball around the edges of the food processor bowl. It will be slightly sticky but if you pinch a little bit in your fingers and roll it, it should stay together in a little ball without leaving a lot of residue on your fingers. Transfer the dough to a clean bowl, patting into a round ball. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rest for an hour (or up to a couple of days in the refrigerator).
• On a lightly floured counter or mat, press the dough into a thick disc-shape. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough as thin as you like into a large rectangle-ish shape - keeping in mind the noodles will puff up quite a bit while boiling - I suggest rolling to at least 1/8-inch thick. See the pictures below for an example. A good rule of thumb is to roll them thinner than you think.
• Using a pizza cutter or knife, slice the dough into strips for noodles, depending on how thick you want them. I like to cut the entire rectangle in half when finished so the noodles aren't insanely long.
• Use the noodles immediately or let them dry in an even layer on a lightly floured parchment-lined baking sheet (it will probably take several sheets).
• If I make these in advance, I let them dry a bit and then toss them in a ziploc bag (they should be dry enough not to stick together) and refrigerate them for a couple of days or freeze them indefinitely.

~ EASY NOODLES ~ FOOD PROCESSOR

Steps:

• 1. Place flour, salt and baking powder into processor bowl. Pulse a few times to mix. Mix eggs with milk and as you pour into flour mixture, pulse just until forms a ball. I then form into two separate balls and roll onto a floured surface. Let the dough rest for 15 - 20 minutes.
• 2. I use my pizza cutter to cut the noodles, use whatever works for you as they don't have to be perfect. Cut as narrow or wide as you like. Then as you lift the noodles from the surface toss with some flour to keep from sticking.
• 3. Let the noodles dry for a few hours You can now freeze them or cook them in your favorite well seasoned soup broth for 10 - 15 minutes or until desired tenderness.
• 4. I added some chicken to my broth! Yum!!!

NO KNEAD HOMEMADE NOODLES (FOOD PROCESSOR)

Steps:

• (This will take only 5 minutes.)Place flour in food processor. Add eggs and process to a meal-like consistency. Continue processing and add cream through tube until the dough forms a ball and cleans the sides of the bowl. (Be careful not to add so much liquid that it turns to a batter instead of a dough ball. Check dough. If it is sticky, break into three pieces and sprinkle with flour. Continue to process until the dough is stiff but not dry, soft and pliable without being sticky. (A softer dough will roll thinner and make more tender noodles.).
• To test if the dough was processed long enough, cut through the ball of dough with a sharp knife. It should have tiny air bubbles throughout. Another test is to rub the ball of dough against your cheek. It should have the soft bounce and velvety touch of a babies bottom.
• Once the dough is processed, place the ball of dough on a counter sprinkled with a small amount of flour and cover it with a bowl. Let it rest for 20 minutes.
• (This will take another 5 minutes.) Cut into four small pieces and roll each of them into a very thin sheet. Sprinkle each sheet with flour and stack on top of each other. Cut the stack into quarters and stack again. Cut thin strips from one side and put them into the bowl sprinkling with small amounts of flour to keep them from sticking.
• The noodles are ready to drop into briskly bowling broth. Lower heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
• Cook time includes time for the dough to rest.
