Grammas Pot Pie Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• Combine egg, salt, milk. Add flour. (For thicker noodles add baking powder to flour before mixing.) Separate into two balls.
• Roll out dough, and let stand for 20 minutes.
• Cut into strips and spread to dry--dust with a little flour. Let dry for approximately 2 hours.
• Drop into hot soup--cook for about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• PREPARE MEAT.
• Put meat in roaster and add water so meat is about 3/4ths covered, then roast at 350 for about 2 hours, checking occasionally and keeping water amount as needed to make a hearty broth. Ham, beef, or chicken base can be mixed with additional water if necessary,or use canned broth to yield required amount of about 2 to 3 quarts of broth to cook dough squares, depending on how many you add. 40 to 50 squares should be ample for 4-6 people.
• Remove meat from roaster and pour broth into medium to large stock pot.
• When meat has cooled to touch, remove from bone and pull meat apart into bite size pieces. Place back in broth.
• If desired add several medium size cubed and "par-boiled" potatoes to broth at this time. I usually do this only when making with Beef.
• When making with ham, I sometimes add soup beans to broth.
• PREPARE DOUGH. This can be done while meat is cooking. (Remove rings because here's where it gets a little messy).
• In large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of flour and the salt. Use remaining flour as needed for "dusting" and clean up as noted herein.
• Slowly add water and thoroughly mix with hands until dough reaches a "slightly sticky to touch" consistency. You may need to add more flour to get this part right. You may also substitute canned broth or broth made with soup base instead of water when mixing dough. This will give a little extra flavor.
• HINT: Rub flour between fingers and on palms during and after mixing to help with clean up.
• Separate dough ball in 2-3 equal pieces and place one at a time on clean work area moderately dusted with flour and large enough to roll out to approximately 9x12-inch sheet. Dust the dough with flour and begin to roll out,flipping over occasionally and lightly dusting the cutting surface and top surface of dough as you continue to roll out.
• After dough is rolled out to approximately 1/8" thickness, use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to make 2" squares.
• Lay out squares side by side on cookie sheet that is either lightly floured or lined with wax paper. Try to avoid overlapping squares. Roll out and cut remaining dough and layer. Place wax paper between all layers.
• Bring broth to a gently rolling boil and add dough piece by piece, stirring into broth about every 10-12 pieces to prevent sticking.
• Adjust heat as needed to keep a gentle boiling until desired amount of dough is added. Then reduce heat and simmer until dough is thoroughly cooked and "chewy but not gooey".
• Serve in soup plate or bowl and enjoy.
• Please note this dough recipe does not call for eggs. My gram always stressed to me their was a difference between egg noodle dough and pot pie dough. I never questioned her cooking practices, but I sure enjoyed the final products !

Steps:

• Combine eggs, egg yolks, water, and salt in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until combined. Beat in 2 cups flour. Mix in 1 cup flour with a wooden spoon. Add more flour to make it as thick as you can stir. Divide dough into 4 equal balls.
• Generously dust a pastry cloth, a rolling pin, and 4 sheets of waxed paper with flour. Roll each ball of dough on the pastry cloth until 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Let dough sit for 45 minutes. Flip each piece of dough (it will be hard to flip) and let sit for another 45 minutes.
• Stack pieces of dough together and cut into noodles. Let noodles dry for about 3 hours.
• Bring chicken broth to a boil in a large pot. Add noodles and cook, uncovered, until soft with no bite and the broth has thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center. In another bowl, beat the egg yolks, egg, water and oil; pour into well. Stir to form a stiff dough., Turn dough onto a well-floured surface; knead 8-10 times. Divide into thirds. Roll each portion to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut noodles into 1/4-in. strips; cut the strips into 2-in. lengths. Cook immediately in boiling broth for 5-7 minutes or until tender; drain.

Steps:

• Resift dry ingredients, add melted butter and mix with the hand until crumbly, like fine corn meal. Break egg into a measuring cup and add milk to 3/4 or 7/8 c. and blend well. Mix liquid into flour mixture to form a ball. Rest, roll thin and cut into squares. Drop noodles into boiling broth or stock and cook until done, about 30 min. The trick is to push floating noodles to the side and drop raw dough into areas where liquid is rolling. Need 4-8 qts. broth, depending on 1 or 2 batches of dough, and how wet you like the pot pie. Now go forth and teach the world that real pot pie does not have a crust and get baked in the oven!!
