I still have to make the chicken stock, but the idea of homemade chicken noodle soup is too good to resist. Your recipe and photos are very helpful, I've bookmarked this for later!

It can be a challenge to roll out the dough since the dough starts out very hard. Taking smaller pieces and using the hand crank Italian pasta maker seems like an easier way to go than rolling out the dough by hand with a rolling pen. Thank you for taking the time to provide the readers with another way of doing this. That is the underlining mission of HisandhersDIY; to show there are many different ways to accomplish the same task! Great tips!

I usually divide ingredients by 2, as I make only small batches. Also, I don't have the strength to knead and roll the dough, so I have invented some helping techniques. 1. I knead the dough in my bread machine. It has a setting for pizza dough. When done, I take out the dough, dust it with rice flour,wrap it in plastic and let it rest for 15-20 minutes. I divide it into 4 pieces with a sharp knife. I keep the dough wrapped except for the piece I'm working on. 2. Using one piece at a time, I roll it at different setting through a hand cranked Italian pasta maker. I use Roma brand. The settings are 7-1 and it is easier to do than it looks. I call the dough done when it has passed through to setting 2 or 1. (very thin) Then I cut dough to size with a pizza cutter, since my machine doesn't have a noodle cutter. It's important to keep the dough floured well when doing this. I use rice flour because it is fine and doesn't have gluten. This is a good recipe.

She is giving it a try today. It looks easy and a lot cheaper. This will be a real money saver if it works and I have high hopes.

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.
