Tips to Make Gluten-Free Egg Noodles

Add starch: If your dough feels too dry, a drizzle of extra olive oil helps. Just don’t drown them!
Thickness matters: Roll out your noodles thinner for a more delicate bite or thicker for a chewier experience. It’s all about your preference!
Experiment: Feel free to mix in spices or herbs into the dough for a flavor boost.

FAQs

Can I use regular flour instead of gluten-free?
You bet! Just be aware that it’ll no longer be gluten-free, but it’ll cook up nicely.

Can I make these ahead of time?
Absolutely! These noodles can be made earlier in the day or even the day before—just store them properly!

How do I freeze the noodles?
Let them cool, then freeze them in an airtight container with a bit of parchment paper in between layers. This way, they won’t stick together!
