Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for dusting)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon water (optional, if the dough feels too dry)
Instructions
  1. 1
    1. Create a mound of flour on a clean countertop, then make a well in the center. Crack the eggs into the well and sprinkle the salt over them. Use a fork to whisk the eggs gently, gradually pulling in small amounts of flour from the edges. Once the mixture becomes thick, switch to kneading by hand.
  2. 2
    2. Knead the dough for about 8–10 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic. If the dough is too dry, add water, one teaspoon at a time. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and allow it to rest for 30 minutes. This helps relax the gluten, making it easier to roll out.
  3. 3
    3. Once rested, dust your counter with flour and cut the dough in half for easier handling. Roll out one portion as thin as possible (to about 1/8 inch for thick noodles or thinner if preferred).
  4. 4
    4. Sprinkle the rolled dough with a light layer of flour to prevent sticking, then roll it up loosely like a jelly roll. Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into thin strips. Unravel the strips into individual noodles and dust them with a little more flour.
  5. 5
    5. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the noodles in and cook for 2–3 minutes or until tender. Drain and serve immediately with your favorite sauce or soup!
