Amish Egg Noodles
Amish Egg Noodles are made by gently cooking extra wide egg noodles in a flavored broth of chicken stock, bouillon, butter, and parsley. The noodles absorb the broth's savory flavors during a steady setting period, resulting in tender, moist noodles with a rich buttery finish seasoned simply with salt and pepper.
