Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups (190 grams) all-purpose or spelt flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup (120 grams) sparkling water
Instructions
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour and salt.
- Use a wooden spoon to vigorously mix in the eggs and water to create a thick batter with no lumps.
- As you are mixing, the dough should become elastic with air bubbles forming as it pulls from the edges.
- If the dough is too thick to easily spread across the board, add a little more water. If too thin to hold its shape, add a little more flour.
- Cover and allow to rest at room temperature for 10-20 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
- Wet the board and scraper with the water, then spread about 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of the batter in a thin layer across the lower half of the board.
- Angle the board just above the simmering water and use the scraper to cut thin strips of the dough into the water.
- Stir gently to remove any pieces from the bottom of the pot. Cook until they float to the top, remove with a strainer, rinse with cold water, drain, and set aside. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to a couple of days.
