Lab 13 (10/27)- Homemade Egg Noodles

Homemade egg noodles

Ingredients:
1 ½ Cup of flour 1 Tbsp. of oil
1/2 tsp. of salt 1 Tbsp. of water, if needed
2 eggs

Combine flour and salt, sift. Beat eggs in a medium bowl. Add oil to the eggs. Add a small amount of flour to the egg mixture and mix with a fork. Continue mixing and adding flour until it is too stiff to stir with a fork.
Knead the rest of the flour into the dough. If too dry add a small amount of water. If too sticky, add more flour. Continue kneading for 8 to 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. Let dough rest for 15 minutes at room temperature to allow gluten to relax.
If available, put dough through a pasta maker. If not, roll out with a rolling pin on the bread board to about 1/16’’ thickness. Cut the noodles into ½ inch wide.
Cook immediately or store for use later. Cook about 5 to 8 minutes in boiling water or chicken broth.
