Instructions

  • First, gather all ingredients and equipment.
  • In a large pasta stock pot, fill with 5 quarts of water and 2 tsp of salt.
  • Then, bring water to a boil.
  • Once the water comes to a full boil, add the egg noodles and boil for 8 minutes. Make sure to stir the noodles occasionally so they don't stick together. (These noodles needed about two minutes past the recommended time.)
  • When the egg noodles have reached the desired consistency, strain the egg noodles in a colander. Then add the egg noodles back to the pot.
  • Add ¼ cup of butter and ¼ to ½ tsp salt and stir vigorously emulsifying with the residual pasta water. This will create the perfect light and creamy sauce for the egg noodles.
  • Eat alone or next to your favorite dish o
