Once you make noodles at home, you won't go back to store bought ones. Why? Conventional noodles tend to contain eggs, msg, preservatives and coloring. If you are vegan and or care about your health, I highly recommend making ones at home!


It is super delicious and not that difficult. Only 4 ingredients!


Does that sound exciting? Let's get started!

SODIUM CARBONATE

If you want to make baked baking soda.

When baking soda is baked it transforms from sodium bicarbonate into sodium carbonate, a stronger alkali.

Baked baking soda is often used in pretzel and bagels. It creates chewy consistency.

CAUTION: Sodium carbonate is CAUSTIC. If you have young children, be sure to KEEP IT OUT OF REACH. It is considered a non-to-mild irritant for the skin and a mild-to-severe irritant for the eyes. Excessive contact may cause irritation with blistering and redness. Flush skin with soap and water for at least 15 minutes.

Here is a great article to read more about sodium carbonate. https://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/15/dining/15curious.html

  1. Preheat oven to 275°F

  2. One cup of baking soda onto a baking tray lined with aluminum foil.

NOODLES

  1. Combine semolina flour, sodium carbonate, vital wheat gluten. Stir.

  2. Place the dry ingredients into a food processor. With a food processor running, slowly add water

  3. Pulse then scrape the bowl. Repeat a few times until well combined. It will remain dry and crumble but don't worry.

  4. Transfer into a quart size plastic bag. Let rest for a few hours overnight.

  5. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough over the bag until it spreads all the way to corners.

  6. Take it out of the bag. Cut into half and place the second half back into the bag.

  7. Feed into a pasta machine, starting with the widest setting. In my case number 0

  8. Feed a few times with the widest setting. It'll make it smoother

  9. Turn the dial to the next setting. In my case number 1

  10. Keep rolling, then turn the dial until you reach the thickness you like. In my case number 6

  11. Sprinkle some corn starch onto thinly rolled pasta dough.

  12. If the edge is not smooth, trim

  13. Feed into the cutting attachment.

  14. Sprinkle generous amount of corn starch onto noodles
