Homemade Egg Noodles

My first attempt at making egg noodles -

 

Ingredients:

300g  'OO'  flour
4 egg yolks
1 egg
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp water

  • In a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, mix flour and salt together.  Then add  in egg and yolks, oil and water.  Knead until the dough is smooth.
  • Cover dough and let it rest for about 30 minutes.  
  • Cut dough into 6 pieces and using a pasta machine, roll and cut into noodles.
  • Hang the noodles on a suspended dowel or chopsticks to dry until ready to cook.

  2. The photo is so great ! Never thought of making my own noodles but now I am tempted to ! However, big dilemma though, I don't get the key ingredient, what is an OO flour?

    1. 00 Flour has a finer grain than commercial flours and is best for making pasta/noodle and pizza dough. I believe you can use bread flour instead of 00 flour.

    1. Tipo "OO" flour (a term used in Italy) is actually mid-protein flour which is suitable for making pasta and noodles. I don't know where you can get it in Singapore but we can easily get them from the supermarkets in Australia. Just get medium protein flour.
