Egg Noodles
Posted by admin | Under Filipino Recipes, Miscellaneous Filipino Dishes Tuesday Apr 29, 2008- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 egg shell cold water
- 1 cup flour
Break the egg into a cup, add the half shell of water and the salt and mix lightly. Shift 2/3 cup of the flour into the bowl, make a hollow in the center and pour in the egg mixture. Stir with a knife in one direction, adding flour until the dough is so stiff that stirring is difficult. Turn onto a floured board and knead until smooth and elastic. The roll out as thin as possible, turning the dough to prevent its sticking to the board.
Flour the board lightly and let the dough stand 1/2 hour dry. Cut the dough into halves, roll each piece like a jelly roll, then slice as thin as desired. Shake the slices apart. Let noodles dry. To cook, drop the noodles into boiling soup or stew, and boil for 10 minutes. Or drop them few at a time into hot fat and quickly fry them until brown and crisp, then drain on paper.
