Homemade Noodle Soup

Noodle soup is just right for lunch, and the chicken broth is both wholesome and delicious! It's a wonderful recipe for the whole family, built on a from-scratch chicken broth. The homemade noodles are the heart of it — there's really no substitute; swap in store-bought pasta or vermicelli and you've got an entirely different dish. This Russian-style noodle soup is considered comforting, restorative food, gentle enough for anyone who's under the weather or recovering, thanks to that nourishing broth. Use a good-quality chicken, whole or a half, and save the cooked meat to use in other recipes.

Cooking method

Step 1:

Simmer a broth from the chicken, then lift out the meat.
Step 2:

Finely chop the onion and carrot.
Step 3:

Add them to a skillet with the butter and sauté until well browned. Stir into the broth and bring to a boil. Once it's boiling, drop in the noodles, season with salt and pepper, and cook about 20 minutes over medium heat. Sprinkle chopped fresh herbs into each bowl just before serving.
Step 4:

Make the noodles: mound the flour on the counter, make a well in the center, and crack in the egg. Adding cold water a little at a time, knead a stiff dough.
Step 5:

Let the dough rest about 20 minutes. Roll it out thin, dust with flour, and cut into long strips about 2 1/2 inches (6 cm) wide.
Step 6:

Stack the strips and slice them crosswise into noodles. To shake off the extra flour, drop the noodles into a sieve and give it a good toss.
