“Homemade chicken noodle soup is a staple in almost every home,” Gastroposter Maria Zychowicz says. But not every home makes it with homemade noodles. “To make homemade noodles is easy and there’s no need for special equipment,” she says. “Just roll the dough thinly and slice with a knife.” Sounds easy enough. But maybe you should make us a sample first, Maria!
