HOMEMADE NOODLE DOUGH

Place unsifted flour on a board and make a well in the center. Drop eggs, water and salt into it. Work the four with one hand and knead until smooth and elastic. Roll and stretch the dough as thin as possible. The thinner it is, the better the noodles. ***STOP HERE FOR KREPLACH RECIPE*** Let the rolled dough stand until it feels dry to the tough, but don't let it get too dry. you can cut the dough into squares, strips or very narrow noodles. For narrow ones roll up like jelly roll and slice as thin as possible. Shake until they separate, and let dry very thoroughly. Cook the amount you want in boiling salted water or soup for about 10 minutes. Keep the balance in tightly closed jars.
