Thanksgiving Noodles from Grandma

Ingredients 0/6

Step 1

Whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, water, and salt until everything is well combined. Gradually add in 2 cups of flour, beating as you go, then stir in another cup with a wooden spoon. Keep adding flour little by little until the dough is thick enough that it’s tough to stir. Divide the dough into four equal balls.

Step 2

Sprinkle plenty of flour on a pastry cloth, your rolling pin, and four sheets of waxed paper. Roll out each ball on the floured cloth until it’s about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Let the dough rest for 45 minutes, then carefully flip each piece (it might be a bit stiff) and let it rest for another 45 minutes.

Step 3

Once the dough has rested, stack the pieces and slice them into noodles. Spread the noodles out and let them dry for about three hours.

Step 4

When you’re ready to cook, bring a large pot of chicken broth to a boil. Add the noodles and cook them uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes, until they’re tender and the broth has thickened nicely. Serve warm and enjoy!
