Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp salt
2 large eggs
¼ cup milk (whole or 2%)
1 tbsp butter (melted, optional for richness)
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Make a well in the center.
Add eggs, milk, and melted butter (if using) to the well. Mix together with a fork, gradually pulling in the flour.
Once it forms a shaggy dough, knead on a floured surface for 5–8 minutes until smooth.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
Roll out dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into strips or desired noodle shape.
Cook noodles in boiling salted water for 2–4 minutes until tender. Drain and serve with your favorite sauce or broth.
