For a nutrition boost, replace one of the eggs with 1/2 cup of pureed beans or vegetables. (That’s two 2-ounce jars of baby food.)
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup semolina flour (plus extra for the board)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs, plus 4 egg yolks, beaten together
Instructions:
- 1. In a large bowl, mix the flours and salt.
- 2. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the eggs. Whisk them, gradually pulling in flour from the rim, until the mixture comes together. (It will be very firm; add a few drops of water if it seems crumbly.)
- 3. Turn the dough out onto a semolina-dusted board. Work it with your hands until it's just smooth, about 5 to 10 minutes—it should spring back slightly when you poke it with your finger.
- 4. Wrap it in plastic and let it sit for 1 hour (or refrigerate it for up to a day).
- 5. Boil a large pot of salted water. Roll the dough out on the semolina-dusted board until it's paper-thin. Slice it into wide strips, any width you like.
- 6. Cook the noodles in the boiling water for 1 minute past the point when they rise to the top, about 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and serve.
