Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 tablespoon Butter or neutral oil (for serving, optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt until well combined.
Step 2
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and crack the eggs into the well. Add the water.
Step 3
Using a fork, gently beat the eggs and water together, gradually incorporating the flour from the edges until a rough dough begins to form.
Step 4
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a small amount of flour, one tablespoon at a time.
Step 5
Wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap or cover with a damp towel and let it rest for 30 minutes at room temperature. This allows the gluten to relax, making it easier to roll out.
Step 6
After resting, divide the dough into two portions. Roll out one portion at a time on a floured surface to your desired thickness (thin for soups, thick for heartier dishes). Use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter to slice the dough into noodles of your preferred width.
Step 7
Lay the cut noodles on a clean towel or baking sheet dusted with flour to prevent sticking. Repeat with the second portion of dough.
Step 8
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook for 2 to 4 minutes (depending on thickness) until tender but firm to the bite.
Step 9
Drain the noodles and toss with butter or oil if desired. Serve immediately as part of your favorite recipe or enjoy plain.
