Tips to Remember

Making homemade noodles can bring some challenges. One of the most important things to do is to ensure you roll the dough thin enough. This allows it to take the proper noodle shape and provides the consistency and texture you expect from a noodle. It’ll taste great either way, but thin dough equals professional-level noodles.

It’s also good to remember that this recipe can be made ahead of time and frozen, so you always have some homemade noodles on hand for future meals. Don’t forget to store them in airtight freezer bags and label and date them appropriately. Pasta may remain frozen for up to three months.
