Homemade Noodles
Description
Homemade Noodles combine high-gluten flour with water and salt to form a smooth dough. Water is added gradually until no dry flour remains, accommodating variations in flour absorption. Kneading the dough until clean hands and bowl indicate thorough blending develops gluten strength for elasticity. After a 30-minute rest covered with a wet cloth, the dough becomes easier to roll.
The rested dough is rolled into a thick wrapper, then further rolled out thinly to about 0.5 cm thickness. The thin sheet is folded into about 5 cm-wide layers with flour sprinkled on each layer to prevent sticking. Using a sharp knife, it is cut into strips for noodles. These noodles can be cooked fresh and used in soups, stir-fries, or as a base for various sauces.
