How to Make Noodles at Home: Store-Bought Isn't Even Close
If you want to learn how to make homemade noodles, be prepared to master some real culinary skills.
However, the result, as the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova, claims, is worth it. In addition, the specialist shared her secrets, which will significantly simplify and speed up the process.
For delicious noodles you need simple but high-quality products. You will need:
- 2 eggs,
- 240 g flour (plus some extra for rolling out),
- 0.5 teaspoon salt.
You need to mix all the ingredients until you get a homogeneous mass.
The dough should be dense and elastic. If it is too dry, a small amount of water will help to correct the situation, while if the mass is too sticky, add a little more flour.
After this, leave the dough for 30 minutes, covered with cling film or a towel.
After half an hour, you can start rolling it out. Try to make the layer as thin as possible.
Use a knife or pasta cutter to cut the dough, adjusting the width of the strips yourself. For example, fettuccine requires a width of 2-3 mm, while for thinner noodles, 1 mm is enough.
All that remains is to cook the homemade noodles by placing them in salted boiling water for 2-4 minutes.
Serve the dish with your favorite sauce: classic tomato or creamy with mushrooms.
You will be able to create a tasty combination if you add grated cheese and finely chopped herbs to the contents of the plate.
