Steps:

• 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.
• On a floured surface, roll out to 1/8 or 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into desired lengths and shapes.
• Allow to air dry before cooking.
• To cook fresh pasta, in a large pot with boiling salted water cook until al dente.

Steps:

• Beat egg, water and salt together.
• Add baking powder and 1/4 cup flour.
• Add more flour (enough to hold together) and turn on floured board.
• Knead a few times until smooth.
• Keep board and rolling pin well floured and roll dough thin.
• Let dough dry out (about 1 hr) then roll dough into a jelly roll & with a sharp knife cut dough into 1/8-1/4" slices.
• Carefully unroll dough and allow noodles to finish drying.
• Cook in 1 quart or more of boiling chicken or beef broth, cook 25 minutes or until tender.
• Noodles can be frozen for future use.

HOMEMADE EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• Beat egg in a mixing bowl; add milk and salt, mix well.
• Gradually add enough flour (I use my hands) until dough forms a ball and can be handled without sticking.
• Divide dough into 2 balls; roll each ball very, very thin-paper thin-on a floured surface (if you do not roll out thin your noodles will take forever to dry and cook through) let sit 20 minutes.
• Slice vertically 1/8" wide for thinner noodles or 1/4" for wide noodles (I use a pizza cutter or pastry cutter), then horizontally to desired length.
• Sprinkle with more flour and spread apart so they are not touching, let dry at least 2 hours.
• Shake off excess flour and drop into boiling broth for about 15 minutes or until tender.

HOMEMADE EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and the salt together. Place the flour in a large bowl, and make a well in the center. Add the egg/salt mixture and stir with a fork to combine. Add 1 teaspoon of water and stir to combine. If the dough feels dry or crumbly, add more water a few drops at a time. Dig your hands into the dough and knead for 2 or 3 minutes to combine thoroughly, adding more water or flour if needed to create a smooth dough that's slightly tacky. Transfer the dough to a flour-dusted pastry cloth and divide it into thirds. Turn the mixing bowl over the dough to cover it and let it rest for 30 minutes. Take one portion of dough and dust it liberally (and the pastry cloth) with flour; roll it into a large circle that's as paper-thin as you can get it. If the dough seems too stretchy and doesn't want to roll, let it rest for another 30 minutes. Repeat rolling the other two portions of dough. Set the rolled dough rounds aside on paper towel to dry. The dried dough should feel slightly leathery: rough on the surface but still pliable. When it reaches this point, roll each round into a cylinder and cut the dough into 1/2-inch strips. Unfurl the noodles and place them on a rimmed baking sheet to dry, preferably overnight, tossing occasionally to ensure even drying. To store your homemade egg noodles, place them in a zip-top plastic bag; they'll keep well for 6 months. Cook the noodles for 5 to 8 minutes in well-salted boiling water.
• Dry and cook.

• Once flour is incorporated, form a round ball and begin kneading the dough; discard any dried bits.
• Lightly flour work surface and knead dough until smooth and elastic; form a flat rectangle, wrap tightly with plastic wrap, refrigerate 20 minutes to 6 hours, to rest.
• Unwrap dough and flatten to about 1/2 inch thick.
• Set the rollers of a hand cranked or electric pasta machine to it's widest opening; run dough through, fold dough lengthwise and repeat.
• Do this 4 or 5 times until dough is smooth and elastic; cut dough in half.
• Set pasta machine to next smaller setting and roll one piece of dough through once (keep other piece covered by a clean kitchen towel); decrease setting and roll through again, repeating until it has run through on the lowest setting.
