Childhood Memories... that's what Homemade noodles bring back.
Mom use to make noodles...I remember her making the dough...
rolling it with a rolling pin and hand cutting them.
It was a lot of work to make noodles for a meal.

Then she got a noodle machine
and she would spend a day making noodles.

Sheets would be laid out on the spare bed...floor...

My sister came and we made noodles
not as many as mom use to make...

Eggs and flour...

Then the dough is rolled out...
about 3 times..

thinner each time
Then the pieces are 'hung' to dry...
the dough can't be sticky when cut into noodles
The noodles are then cut and laid out to dry completely...
MMM ...nothing quite like home made noodles...
Talking about homemade...
my crafty daughter and friend are making things
and posting them in their new blog...
Take a look
Have a great weekend!!
Mmm...those look so delicious, it ALMOST makes me want to make some!
ReplyDeleteHow extra special these homemade noodles are! So neat to be making something from your childhood memories.
ReplyDeleteHave made these but all the hard way....kneading and rolling by hand.....still wonderful!
ReplyDeleteMy mother made noodles, but I have no photos of the process. After she rolled out the dough, it was draped over chairs by the heater. Later, piles of noodles were placed on the beds to dry. Nothing compares to the taste of homemade noodles!
ReplyDeleteThat's very impressive to me who don't even cook most of the time.
ReplyDeleteNever had homemade noodles myself but I know anything homemade is always the best.
ReplyDeleteMy MIL used to make noodles and I have tried - but never got the noodles quite right!
ReplyDeleteyummy...i love anything my mom cooks!!
ReplyDeletethe picture on my blog was taken at a reservior, not too far from home. our beaches are beautiful, nothing like that!!
I have a pasta maker somewhere... lol. But I do know how to make noodles the old fashioned way. :)
ReplyDeleteoh fun... i bought some amish noodles the other day but i bet making 'em is so much better!! :)
ReplyDeleteYum, those look really good. You are right - there is nothing better than the homemade ones.
