• Drop into hot soup--cook for about 10 minutes.

GRANDMA BAKER'S EGG NOODLES RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine milk and eggs, beat to combine. Add salt and stir to incorporate into egg mixture.
• Add flour a little at a time until it forms a solid dough.
• Roll out dough onto floured surface about 1/8″ thick. Cover the top of the dough with flour. Roll up like a jelly roll, starting at the edge, roll all the way across. Cut 1/4 inch slices across the roll. Shake out and drop into boiling broth, one at a time. When all are in the broth, bring to boil and cook about 1 minute.

• 4. Cut into thin strips shake loose and layout on a floured surface. Repeat with other two sections.

GRANDMA'S HOMEMADE NOODLES

Steps:

• 1. Beat egg yolks and whole egg together.
• 2. Add baking powder, salt and cream and mix well.
• 3. I make my dough in my big Kichenaid Stand Mixer, using the dough hook. It works great!
• 4. Add enough flour to make a really stiff dough. Knead flour in.
• 5. Roll out really thin on a floured surface. Roll up the dough and cut into thin strips.
• 6. Unroll strips and lay on tea towel or hang on noodle drying rack to dry. NOTE: If you want to cook them right away, they do not have to be dry. The drying is really only for making them in advance or for storing them. That having been said, the drying rack is the best way to get them completely dry for storage. My boyfriend made the one in the picture, but you can also buy them on line.
• 7. Drop into hot boiling broth and cook until tender.
• 8. For Beef and Noodles, I put them right into my roasting pan or crockpot for the last hour of cook time. Either dried or not. For Chicken and Noodles, I drop them right into the chicken broth mixture, without drying them. I include a little extra flour to thicken them up and then I serve them over mashed potatoes.

GRANDMA'S HOMEMADE CHICKEN NOODLES

Steps:

• The chicken can be whole pieces or bite sized whatever you prefer. I like to cut chicken breast into bite sized pieces.
• In a large soup pot boil chicken in water or chicken broth. Add garlic, salt and pepper to taste.
• While chicken is boiling combine flour, salt and eggs into a large mixing bowl. Start with a 1/4 cup of milk and add more milk or flour to get a pie crust type consistency.
• Roll out dough on a floured surface as thin as you like remembering that the noodles will probably double in thickness when cooking (Thinner the better in my mind). Cut the noodles with a pizza or noodle cutter. I typically cut them into 1/2 inch by 5 inch pieces.
• If the chicken is finished cooking then add the noodles into the boiling broth and cook until done. (If they are not finished you will see a white center, the noodles turn yellow when cooked) Takes about 5 minutes to cook at the thickness that I roll the noodles.
• Add the worcestershire sauce and butter.
• Serve in a bowl or plate depending on if you want lots of broth or not and I recommend sprinkling parmesean cheese over the top when finished.

GRANDMA'S EASY EGG NOODLE RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine flour and salt in a large bowl. Create a well in the middle, and then whisk in olive oil and eggs. Stir until a solid dough ball forms (making sure to pull flour from the sides as you do this.) Wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes (longer is better!)
• Unwrap dough, and with a rolling pin, roll out into a sheet that is about 1/4 inch thin.
• Using a pizza cutter, make a long cut down the center of the dough, cutting it in half. Then, cutting the other way, cut long strips of pasta (start at one end, and cut until you reach the cut that was made to divide the dough in half -- see picture)
• Lay noodles on a cookie sheet.
• Either cook immediately, or leave out to dry. If cooking immediately, place in boiling water for 3-5 minutes, then bring down from a boil. We just brought the chicken soup to a boil, and put them in right before serving. If cooking after they've been dried, bring pot to a boiling water for about 8-10 minutes.

HOMEMADE EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• In a bowl, add flour. Make a "well" in the center of the flour.
• Combine eggs, salt, water and oil in another bowl.
• Add wet mixture to the well.
• Mix together until ingredients are incorporated.
• Flour a flat surface. Turn dough out and begin to knead the dough until it's smooth and elastic. About 8 minutes or so. (alternatively, you can use your dough hook attachment for your stand mixer.)
• Form dough into a ball. Cover with a clean towel and let sit for 10 minutes before rolling out on a floured surface.
• Cut noodles 1/8" thick and 1/4" wide.
• Hang or lay on a lightly floured tea towel to dry for a couple of hours.
• To cook, add noodles to a salted pot of water that has come to a rapid bowl. Noodles will rise to the surface in 4-7 minutes and be cooked. Stir to keep them separated.
• Serve immediately, or add to soups or casseroles.

GRANDMA'S BUTTER NOODLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and melted butter together with a fork. Stir in the flour, baking powder and salt until dough becomes stiff. Knead on a lightly floured surface or in the bowl for a few minutes to blend completely. Divide the dough into thirds. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece into a sheet about 1/16 of an inch thick. Place each sheet onto a dry cloth and set aside for 30 to 45 minutes to partially dry.
• When the noodle sheets are somewhat dry, roll up one at a time into a loose spiral and cut into strips as wide as you want using a sharp knife. Spread out the noodles to dry for about 1 hour before cooking or storing in freezer containers. To use frozen noodles, thaw in the container before using.
• To cook the noodles, drop into rapidly boiling water or broth, and cook until tender, 7 to 10 minutes.
