Homemade Noodles

Chicken Noodle Soup

My neighbor Maxine made noodles last week.  She graciously agreed to share her recipe and directions.

Ingredients:

1 beaten egg

2 tablespoons milk

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup flour

*

Directions:

In a mixing bowl combine egg milk and salt.  Stir in enough of the flour to make a stiff dough.  Cover and let rest 10 minutes.  

On a floured board, roll the dough into a 16 x 12 inch rectangle.  Let stand 20 minutes.  Roll up loosely.  Cut into 1/4" slices.  Unroll and cut into desired lengths.  Spread out and let dry 2 hours.

Maxine cooks a package of chicken thighs (with the skin on) in water with seasonings of choice.  When cool enough to handle, pull the chicken meat apart.  Return the meat and the noodles to the broth and cook until the noodles are tender.
