Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • salt for boiling

Instructions
 

  • In a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine the flour, eggs, and salt.
  • Knead by machine for 10 minutes until a smooth dough is formed. It should not be sticky or too dry.
  • Add a small amount of flour or water as necessary to form a smooth dough.
  • Remove dough from machine and knead several times on the counter.
  • Cover the dough in plastic and let rest for 20 minutes.
  • Pinch off small pieces of dough and put on a floured surface.
  • Bring pot of salted water to boiling. Drop noodles into boiling water as you stir to prevent sticking.
  • Boil until al dente, about 10 minutes.
  • Add to soups or stews.
  • If not using right away, toss with butter.

Notes

  • Noodles can be boiled directly in soups or stews instead of water.
  • The dough can be made in a food processor or all by hand.
