my grandmother when I was VERY LITTLE use to make these. She'd put a hep of flour on the old kitchen table making a well. Carefully cracking and egg filling each half of the shell with water. bringing the flour in to mix it all... I still do it sometimes that way... I am now 63 yrs. that was 55 yrs + ago... :)

ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing! I can just imagine your grandmother working at her table with you!
My momma used to hang the noodles on the metal railing between the dining room and kitchen to dry a little while she finished rolling out the rest!
