Mix the dry ingredients in a medium size bowl. Make a well in the center and pour in the eggs. Gradually mix the flour in until all of it is well incorporated. If the dough is too dry and crumbles, add some milk a tablespoon at a time. You want it to hold together well, but not be too wet, like pie crust dough. Cover the dough or put it in a large resealable bag and let it rest for 1/2 hour.
Cut the dough in 3 or 4 equal pieces. Work with one ball at a time, keeping the others covered or in the bag. With each one, sprinkle your working surface with a little flour, and dust the rolling pin with flour. Roll each ball out as thin as possible. Set each rolled out circle aside for about 1/2 hour let it dry a little.
When the circles of dough are dry enough that they won't stick together, stack them on top of each other. Roll them up into a fairly tight cylinder. With a sharp knife, slice across the cylinder into whatever width noodles you want. When done, pick up each piece, unroll it, and put each individual noodle on a pasta drying rack, or on a table to dry.
My mother always let the noodles dry out for a few hours. I don't. I let them dry as long as it takes to make the soup or sauce I am using them for.
Cook until tender. The length of time required depends on how thin you rolled the dough. I like them slightly thick, and they take about 15 minutes then.
Any leftovers can be put in a clean paper bag, closed, to store.

I have lots of noodle recipes, and they're all good, but I just keep adding new ones to try. Yours will be next. We love making noodles, and have a special stick to hang between 2 chair backs. I have frozen them, but I like to make them fresh when I have time. They sure make chicken something to rave about, don't they?
Thank you for sharing your recipe with us.

Mix the egg, salt and milk well. Add flour, dough will be sticky and somewhat stiff. Pour out on well floured surface and knead to make smooth.
Roll out to 1/8 inch thick let dry for 2 hours or more if you need the time. Cut into 5x8 inch shapes, size is approximate. Stack the shapes and slice 1/4 inch slices across the 5 inch side.
Scatter them out on the floured surface to dry. If you make more than you are using that day, they freeze wonderfully. You can dry them out completely but they will be somewhat brittle. You will want to lay them out straight and flat instead of scattering them if you dry them completely. Still freeze them to be safe.
You can make your noodles as wide or thin as you wish.

Roll out half of dough on floured surface with floured rolling pin, forming rectangle 20x14 inches. Fold in half crosswise and then in half again. Cut in 1/8 to 1/2 inch strips. Place in single layer on clean cloth towels to dry. Repeat with remaining half of dough. Let noodles dry 2 hours.
To cook, drop into boiling salted water or boiling soup; cook 10-15 minutes or until tender.

Mix the flour, eggs and food coloring together to form a dough. (Add a little water or milk if the dough is too dry.) Knead the dough until it is thin enough to cut into noodles. Cut the noodles to the desired thickness and let dry for 20 minutes. Or you can put the noodles in soup and slow cook them until they are done.

Combine egg, oil and water. beat well. Combine flour and baking powder with liquid. Roll out paper thin. Let rest. Slice and let dry before cooking. There is no salt in this recipe.

Beat the egg yolks and the whole egg together until light. Beat the water and salt in. Stir in floured and work with your hands. Divide dough in 3 parts. Roll out on floured board and let dry. Roll up and cut when they have dried. These can be rolled and cut with a noodle machine, if you like.
