Grandmas Homemade Noodles Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Beat the eggs and water together in a bowl. Sift the flour, salt, and baking powder into a separate large bowl and make a well in the center. Pour the beaten eggs into the well, then stir in the flour mixture until a soft dough forms.
• Roll the dough into a very thin layer on a lightly-floured surface; cut into 1/2 inch strips. Allow to dry at least 4 hours before using.

GRANDMA'S NOODLES II

• Cut into strips and spread to dry--dust with a little flour. Let dry for approximately 2 hours.
• Drop into hot soup--cook for about 10 minutes.

• Add noodles to boiling chicken stock. Cook for ten to fifteen minutes.

GRANDMA'S EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center. In another bowl, beat the egg yolks, egg, water and oil; pour into well. Stir to form a stiff dough., Turn dough onto a well-floured surface; knead 8-10 times. Divide into thirds. Roll each portion to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut noodles into 1/4-in. strips; cut the strips into 2-in. lengths. Cook immediately in boiling broth for 5-7 minutes or until tender; drain.

GRANDMA'S THANKSGIVING NOODLES

Steps:

• Combine eggs, egg yolks, water, and salt in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until combined. Beat in 2 cups flour. Mix in 1 cup flour with a wooden spoon. Add more flour to make it as thick as you can stir. Divide dough into 4 equal balls.
• Generously dust a pastry cloth, a rolling pin, and 4 sheets of waxed paper with flour. Roll each ball of dough on the pastry cloth until 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Let dough sit for 45 minutes. Flip each piece of dough (it will be hard to flip) and let sit for another 45 minutes.
• Stack pieces of dough together and cut into noodles. Let noodles dry for about 3 hours.
• Bring chicken broth to a boil in a large pot. Add noodles and cook, uncovered, until soft with no bite and the broth has thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.

OLD-FASHIONED HOMEMADE NOODLES

Steps:

• Measure flour into bowl and make a "well" in the flour.
• Drop the remaining ingredients into that "well."
• Work dough until it is stiff.
• Roll very thin.
• Let dry a minimum of two hours then cut into strips (I use a pizza cutter to cut the strips). You may dry longer.
• Bring boullion to a boil. If you are cooking the noodles with meat, you will want to bring the cooked meat to a boil with the broth.
• Add noodles and bring back to full boil. Lower heat to low-medium and cover pan.
• Cook covered for 18 - 20 minutes.

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.
