This delightful festive homemade pasta brings warmth and comfort to your Thanksgiving table, perfect for soaking up rich broths and sauces.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons butter
6 cups chicken stock
Method
In a large mixing bowl, blend together the flour and salt until evenly combined. Slowly add in the milk, whisked eggs, and melted butter. Knead the mixture for approximately 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rest for 10 minutes to relax.
On a lightly floured countertop, roll out the dough to your desired thickness, either 1/8 inch or 1/4 inch. Use a sharp knife or pasta cutter to slice the dough into your favorite noodle shapes.
Place the cut noodles on a clean surface and let them air dry for at least 1 hour before cooking.
In a large pot, bring chicken broth to a vigorous boil. Once boiling, gently add the dried noodles and cook at a steady boil until they become tender and the broth has thickened, which should take about 15 minutes.
