Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup With Hand Made Egg Noodles Recipes

HOMEMADE CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP WITH HAND-MADE EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• Wash your hands, remove any rings and get ready to get messy.
• Noodles: Break warmed eggs into a large bowl. Add 3/4 of the flour and mix with a wooden spoon until most of the flour is combined with the eggs. "Squish" dough through your fingers. Dough will probably be pretty sticky. Add a little more flour. Continue squishing through your fingers and kneading dough and adding small amounts of flour until dough is no longer sticky. You can add a little water if you get it too dry. The key here is to have the dough just to the point of not being sticky.
• Let dough rest 20-30 min (allows gluten to develop).
• Meanwhile, start broth and water boiling. Slice carrot, celery and onion and chop chicken. Add vegetables, chicken, garlic powder, onion powder and parsley to broth.
• Take rested dough and run through your pasta machine to desired thickness and cut into 1/4" wide noodles (if you don't have one, that's OK -- skip to the next step!). Cut noodles to desired length. Separate noodles and lay out to dry until veggies are tender.
• No pasta machine? Wipe down your counter and dry thoroughly. Dust a 1 foot circular area with all-purpose flour. Place rested dough on floured counter. Knead gently a few times. Re-flour counter and dough. Knead until pasta is smooth. Roll out with a rolling pin to 1/8" thick and cut into 1/4" thick strips with a sharp knife or pizza cutter(don't cut the counter). Cut to desired length. Separate noodles and lay out to dry until veggies are tender.
• When veggies are tender, add noodles and allow to boil 3-5 minutes until tender.
• Season with salt and pepper as desired.
• Portions can be frozen for later, if desired.
• ENJOY!

CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP WITH EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• Combine chicken and chicken broth in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover partially, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken with tongs and transfer to a large bowl. Allow chicken and broth to cool slightly.
• Remove skin and bones from cooled chicken and discard. Cut chicken meat into bite-sized pieces. Skim fat off the top of the cooled broth and discard.
• Return chicken broth to a simmer. Add carrots, celery, and onion to the broth and simmer until vegetables soften, about 8 minutes. Stir in chicken, egg noodles, parsley, and lemon juice and simmer until noodles are tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
