Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt, then create a well in the center.
  2. Crack the eggs into the well and gradually incorporate the flour using a fork until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead firmly for 8-10 minutes until smooth and hard.
  4. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 15 minutes to relax the gluten.
  5. Roll the dough out on a floured surface until it is very thin, almost translucent.
  6. Fold the dough loosely and use a sharp knife to cut thin vermicelli-style noodles.
  7. Bring 3 quarts of water and 2 tablespoons of salt to a rolling boil in a large pot.
  8. Add the cut noodles to the boiling water and cook for 3 minutes, stirring gently to prevent sticking.
  9. Drain the noodles immediately and rinse thoroughly with cold water to stop the cooking process.
