Over the last 2 weeks my class at school has been participating in a program named Midwest Food Connection supported by the school PTA and the Wedge Co-Op. This week we made homemade pasta dough. Then we made it into noodles, boiled them in a pan and enjoyed them. The noodles where so good that we were given the recipe to take home.
1 & 1/2 cups all-purpose or semolina flour
1 egg
1 tbsp. olive oil
1/4 cup water(or more as needed)
1 tbsp. salt (for cooking water)
1. Place flour in bowl. Make a small well in the mound.
2. Break in egg, mix briefly.
3. Mix in oil and water (exact amounts not necessary)
4. Mix first with fork, then knead dough with hands for about 2 minutes.
5. Add small amounts of flour if dough is too sticky or water if too dry.
6. When ready, dough should not stick to clean hands. Can rest for a while.
7. Form into shapes, using about a nickel size amount of dough and drop into boiling,salted water. Cook for about 4 minutes. Noodles are done when they float to the surface. Drain noodles.
8. Enjoy with your favorite topping.
Serves 2-4
