01
Step 1
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, water, and salt until everything is well combined. Stir in 2 cups of flour using a mixer, then switch to a wooden spoon to mix in another cup of flour. Keep adding flour little by little until the dough is thick enough that you can still stir it. Divide the dough into four equal parts and shape each into a ball.

Step 2
Lightly flour a pastry cloth, rolling pin, and four sheets of waxed paper. Roll out each dough ball on the cloth until it’s about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Let the dough rest for 45 minutes, then carefully flip each piece (it might be a bit tricky since it will be stiff) and let them sit for another 45 minutes.

Step 3
Once they’ve rested, stack the sheets of dough and slice them into noodles. Spread the noodles out to dry for about three hours.

Step 4
When ready to cook, bring a big pot of chicken broth to a boil. Drop in the noodles and cook them uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes, until they’re tender and the broth has thickened nicely. Enjoy!

How to serve
These noodles pair wonderfully with rich gravies or creamy sauces. Serve them alongside roasted turkey and vegetables to complete your Thanksgiving feast. A sprinkle of fresh herbs on top adds a lovely touch.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftover noodles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, warm them gently in a pan with a little butter or sauce to keep them moist. Avoid freezing, as it can change the texture.
