Nothing is more satisfying than a dish of homemade noodles. This is my go to recipe for noodles, when making chicken and noodles. My mother made chicken and noodles every Thanksgiving and Christmas. I try to keep that tradition alive. See my recipe for Homemade Chicken and Noodles.

Ingredients For homemade egg noodles

    all purpose flour
  • 1 lg
    egg
  • 2 lg
    egg yolks
  • 1 dash
    salt (optional)

How To Make homemade egg noodles

  • 1
    Place flour and salt in a large mixing bowl, stir well to mix together. Note: I used my stand mixer with the dough hook.
  • 2
    Make a well in center of flour, add whole egg and the 2 yolks into the well in center of flour. Stir eggs into flour until dough comes together.
  • 3
    Place dough ball onto a well floured surface; knead dough a couple of times until a stiff dough forms. Roll dough out on a well floured surface to less than 1/8th of an inch. Note: I cut the dough ball in half, it makes it easier for rolling out.
  • 4
    Noodles can be cut from the rolled out dough, or dough can be rolled up cigar fashion and then cut with a knife or pizza cutter. Just make sure the dough is well floured, before and after cutting. This is what will make your broth thicken up.
  • 5
    Lay noodles out on newspaper for at least 2 hrs. to dry. If possible, overnight is better. Make sure there is plenty of flour on the noodles.
  • 6
    When ready to cook, drop noodles in boiling water, broth or stock.
