Method

  • Preheat the oven to 120 °C.

Noodles

  • Sprinkle baking soda onto parchment paper and bake in the oven for 1 hour.
  • Mix the baked baking soda with hot water until dissolved, add cold water, then the flour.
  • Combine the dough until it forms a crumbly texture and knead for 5 minutes.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let rest on the counter for 20 minutes.
  • Knead for another 5 minutes, re-wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  • Remove the dough and divide into 4 equal portions.
  • Roll each portion through a pasta machine. Start at the widest setting and work your way to thickness 2.
  • Cut the noodles by hand or pass through the pasta cutter that comes with the pasta roller. Use plenty of flour to keep the noodles separate.

  • Rinse the noodles in cold water while stirring well.
  • Dip the noodles into the boiling water for a few seconds, then transfer to a bowl.
