So, there's another 14 inches of snow moving in overnight. All the schools in three states are closed in anticipation, and everyone is on the snow watch here. So far it's just a light dusting on the windshield of the car, but by morning, the great outdoors should be quite impressive.
It was pretty darn cold and bleak out there today, so of course, this called for food -- homemade noodles. The ultimate comfort food.
I have no idea what the recipe would look like for these -- something like a few cups of flour, an egg, a little water and a pinch of salt. I haven't measured the ingredients in my homemade egg noodles since forever. I just watched Mom and Grandma make them enough times that I finally got the hang of it. Drop a few handfuls of these babies into some home-stewed chicken broth and all the bad things go away.
Mine are still a little thicker than they should be, but all-in-all, they turned out pretty tasty. Someday it would be nice to have a pasta machine, but for now, the old rolling pin works wonders.
Do you have a favorite comfort food?
