Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, beaten
4 to 6 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer or food processor (or by hand), combine flour and salt. Add eggs and enough water so dough forms into a ball.
  • Knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 to 8 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest 30 minutes.
  • Roll out dough on a floured surface as thinly as possible. Do not cover. Let dry for 30 minutes but no longer otherwise it will crack when you try to cut it.
  • Either roll the dough into a cylinder and slice, or slice dough into 3-inch wide strips, flour and stack them on top of each other, then slice 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch across.
  • Scatter noodles across a floured surface so they don't stick together. Let dry 30 minutes. Cook in boiling, salted water 5 to 10 minutes, depending on thickness and your preference. Drain.
  • If you want to save the noodles for later use, make sure they are completely dry before storing.

Tips:

  • No matter what type of Polish noodles you're making, always use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Freshly-made noodles are always best, but if you don't have the time, store-bought noodles will work just fine.
  • When boiling noodles, be sure to add a generous amount of salt to the water. This will help to flavor the noodles and prevent them from sticking together.
  • Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
  • Once the noodles are cooked, drain them well and rinse them with cold water. This will help to stop the cooking process and prevent the noodles from sticking together.
  • Polish noodles can be served with a variety of sauces and toppings. Some popular options include butter and breadcrumbs, poppy seeds, or stewed cabbage.

Conclusion:

Polish noodles are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you're making them from scratch or using store-bought noodles, following these tips will help you create a delicious and authentic Polish noodle dish.
