Homemade Noodles

2  c flour
3 egg yolks
1 egg
2 t salt
1/4 to 1/2 c water

Put flour in bowl and make "well" for egg, yolks, and salt. Mix together, and add water 1 T at a time until dough forms into a ball.

Turn dough onto well foured cloth covered board.  Knead until smooth and elastic.(10 minutes). Let rest 10 minutes.

Divide dough into 4 parts. Roll dough 1 part at a time into paper thin rectangle (sometimes I like them a little thicker than this). Keep remaining dough covered.  Cut rolled dough into strips.  Separate strips and place them on towel to dry for 2 hours. When dry, break into smaller pieces and cook in chicken broth 12-15 minutes or until tender.  Add these to your favorite chicken noodle soup recipe for a real treat!  Or thicken the broth and serve over mashed potatoes.
