Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour, plus additional as needed
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1/3 cup water

Instructions

  • Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in center of flour. Add egg yolks, whole egg, and water; mix thoroughly. If dough is too sticky, mix in enough flour to make dough easy to handle. If dough is too dry, mix in enough water to make dough easy to handle.
  • Pour out onto a floured surface and form into a ball. Divide dough into 4 equal parts. Roll one-fourth of dough at a time on a lightly floured surface, into a rectangle. Loosely fold rectangle lengthwise into thirds. Cut crosswise into strips 1/8 to 1/2 inch wide, as desired. Lay noodles in a single layer to dry on paper towels for at least 30 minutes, and up to 3 hours.
  • Break or cut into smaller pieces and cook in boiling water or in soup for 20-30 minutes. The thicker the noodles the longer they will take to cook.

Notes

Drying time will depend on the thickness of the noodles, temperature, humidity, etc.
