Amish Noodles

Mercy's Note:

This is my Dad's favorite noodle recipe. He makes them for Thanksgiving and Christmas every year. Cooking time is actually the drying time. These can be frozen in zippy bags and used, as needed.

• 1 ¼ teaspoons salt

wonderful, enjoyed every minute of the flavor, even though I added toooooo much salt (my glasses don't work).

Delicious! It reminded me of Pennsylvania and I was a bit homesick with a reminder of my mom. I highly recommend this simple but hearty dish.
