Remember not to salt the water when you cook them. Your ideas for variations using the whole wheat flour are great. We like the large noodles as they are similar to dumplings rather than typical noodles, but less bready than typical dumplings! If you reduce the size of the noodle they may not take as long to cook. Blocking the edges will also make the noodle more presentable if you are serving guest and want to make a nice presentation.

I think it'd be very difficult to cut them so thin before they were dry. Oh…I should also mention that when I cut them narrow it was after they had dried.

It's SO fun. I worried they would be too salty after tasting the dough, but they're not. In case anyone was wondering about making them in advance...I made them the night before, floured them and stored them in the fridge in a plastic bag without problem. This makes a bit more than needed to make chicken noodle soup for 2 people so I've been messing with these noodles to get them right. I actually like them cut very narrow or more square better than the shape the recipe calls for...but that's just a personal texture preference. I think these are a perfect candidate for trying with a mix of all purpose and whole wheat flour. I'll post again if I try that. Thanks!!! First off, I love this. It’s SO fun.
