Fancy homemade fresh noodles? With just 10 eggs and 1 kg of flour (semi-coarse and coarse) you can make tender homemade pasta that dries quickly and keeps your pantry tidy. Finished pasta tastes great with sauce, broth, or as a last resort when you have nothing in the fridge.

For 8 portions

Ingredients

Preparation procedure

  • Dough preparation In a large bowl, crack all the eggs and lightly beat them with a fork. Stir in both flours and a pinch of salt. First use a spoon, then work the dough with your hands into a smooth, non-sticky and elastic dough.
  • Rest Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest 30 min on the kitchen counter. Thanks to the short „rest“ the dough is easier to roll and cut.
  • Rolling and cutting Divide the dough into 4–6 pieces. On a floured work surface roll each piece as thinly as possible (approx. 1–2 mm). Then lightly dust the sheet with flour and, using a sharp knife or pastry wheel, cut into noodles of the desired width (about 2–3 mm).
  • Drying Spread the noodles on a clean tray or pasta dryer and let them dry for 30 min to 1 h. Cook fresh noodles immediately; dried ones can be stored in an airtight container for several weeks.
  • Cooking Boil the noodles in boiling salted water for 2–3 minutes, until al dente. Drain, toss with a little oil and serve with sauce, meat, or soup.

Total preparation time

  • Active work: 15 min

  • Dough resting: 30 min

  • Shaping and drying: 30 min to 1 h

  • Total: approx. 1 h 15 min

Conclusion

Homemade egg noodles made from 10 eggs and 1 kg of flour are quickly prepared thanks to the simple process and the short rest in the dough. Their texture is tender, drying for just a few tens of minutes is sufficient, and the resulting noodles will bring the taste of a true homemade specialty to your kitchen.
