Beat egg slightly.

Add salt and enough flour to make a stiff dough.

Knead well.

On a floured board, roll out paper-thin with a rolling pin.

After rolling, dust top with flour. This makes pulling the noodles apart after cutting simple.

Roll up like a jelly roll.

Slice across roll into strips.

Slice strips in half.

Pull noodles apart and cook by dropping into boiling salted water or broth; cook until done, about 10 minutes.

I don’t cook first then drain like I would normally do with bought noodles — I put them right into whatever dish I’m making. I scrape all of the extra flour into the pot also, it thickens the broth a bit.
