This recipe is the basic recipe that has been in my family for generations, too.. The only difference is that once we cut the noodles we would lay them out on clean kitchen towels to dry and we would boil them for a few minutes before serving... it took the eggy taste away, and felt more like real noodles. Great.

I always wondered how my grandmother made these! I made them today to go with our chicken soup. The taste was a little eggier (if thats a word) than I like, but were still very delicious. Thanks Caryn.
