This dish brings back warm memories of family gatherings and home-cooked comfort. It combines simple ingredients into a rich and satisfying meal that everyone will enjoy. The flavors are hearty and nostalgic, making it a perfect addition to any holiday table.
Step 1
Whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, water, and salt until everything is well combined. Gradually add in 2 cups of flour, beating as you go, then stir in another cup with a wooden spoon. Keep adding flour little by little until the dough is thick enough that it’s tough to stir. Divide the dough into four equal balls.
Step 2
Sprinkle plenty of flour on a pastry cloth, your rolling pin, and four sheets of waxed paper. Roll out each ball on the floured 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 stiff) and let it rest for another 45 minutes.
Step 3
Once the dough has rested, stack the pieces and slice them into noodles. Spread the noodles out and let them dry for about three hours.
Step 4
When you’re ready to cook, bring a large pot of chicken broth to a boil. Add the noodles and cook them uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes, until they’re tender and the broth has thickened nicely. Serve warm and enjoy!

Storage Guide
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to keep the noodles tender. For longer storage, freeze in a sealed container and thaw overnight before reheating.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use all egg whites instead of whole eggs and yolks?
Using only egg whites will change the dough’s texture and richness. It’s best to use the whole eggs and yolks as stated for the right consistency.
How do I know when the dough has enough flour?
The dough should be thick and tough to stir, not sticky or runny.
Can I skip resting the dough?
Resting helps relax the gluten and makes rolling easier, so it’s recommended to rest the dough for the full time.
What can I use if I don’t have a pastry cloth?
You can use a clean countertop or large cutting board, just make sure to flour the surface well.
How should I store the noodles if I don’t cook them right away?
After drying, store the noodles in an airtight container or sealed bag in a cool, dry place or refrigerate if using soon.
Can I use regular chicken broth instead of homemade?
Yes, store-bought chicken broth works fine and adds flavor to the noodles as they cook.
Is it okay to cook noodles longer than 20 minutes?
Cooking longer may make them too soft or mushy; check for tenderness around 15 minutes and adjust as needed.
Can I freeze the noodles after drying?
Yes, dried noodles freeze well. Place them in a sealed bag and thaw before cooking.
