Homemade Egg Noodles 🍜✨
Just 5 ingredients for silky, tender noodles—perfect for soups, stews, or buttery garlic tosses!
Ingredients
-
1 large egg
-
2 egg yolks (extra richness!)
-
3 tbsp cold water
-
1 tsp salt
-
2 cups all-purpose flour (+ extra for dusting)
Instructions
1. Make the Dough
-
In a bowl, whisk whole egg, yolks, water, and salt until smooth.
-
Gradually add flour, stirring until a shaggy dough forms.
-
Knead on a floured surface for 5–7 mins until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic; rest 30 mins.
2. Roll & Cut
-
Divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll each paper-thin (⅛-inch or 3mm) on a floured surface.
-
For long noodles: Fold rolled dough like a letter, slice into strips (¼-inch for fettuccine, thinner for tagliatelle).
-
For rustic cuts: Roll loosely, slice irregularly for “pappardelle” style.
3. Cook or Store
-
Fresh: Boil in salted water for 2–3 mins until al dente.
-
To dry: Hang on a rack for 2+ hours, then store airtight for up to 1 week.
🔥 Pro Tips:
-
Flour well to prevent sticking while rolling.
-
Freeze: Lay uncut noodles on parchment, freeze flat, then bag for 3 months.
-
Serve with: Chicken soup, brown butter sage sauce, or creamy Alfredo!
Homemade noodles = next-level comfort food! 😋💛
