Textured Homemade Egg Noodles For Ramen
- 100 grams Bread (strong) flour
- 1 small Egg
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Nigari or preferably kansui (alkaline soda water)
- 1 Additional bread flour for dusting
- 1 Katakuriko for dusting while forming the noodles
- Mound up the flour and make a well in the middle.
- Put the egg, salt and nigari or kansui in the well, and mix the flour in little by little as if you were breaking down the walls of the well.
- If the dough is too sticky dust with more flour as you knead it very well.
- Knead until the dough is easy to handle.
- When the texture of the dough is good, cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for a while.
- If you are short on time you can just use it without a rest.
- Useas a reference to roll out the dough.
- Since these noodles are for ramen, they can be rolled out quite thinly (if you're using a pasta machine, go to level 6 on the thickness dial).
- Use katakuriko for dusting while you're rolling it out!
- You can use the cut noodles as is, but if you want to make them crinkly, dust with plenty of katakuriko and lightly squeeze the noodles several times.
- Boil for 1 to 2 minutes.
- When the noodles float to the surface, they're done.
- These are cooked noodles.
