How To Make Egg Noodles Using A Noodlemaker (Video Guide)

Egg Noodles always remind me of Wantan Meen, a favorite hawker fare of mine since young. With my Joyoung Noodlemaker, it's really really easy to make Egg Noodles whenever i feel like cooking Wantan Meen for my family.

I have made a Video Guide on How To Make Egg Noodles with my Joyoung Noodlemaker. It's in 3 parts for ease of viewing. It will show you the necessary steps and what to expect when you are attempting Egg Noodles with your noodlemaker.

Skill Level: Basic
Disc: Medium round

Homemade Egg Noodle Recipe calls for 400g of plain flour, 1 egg + some water (140ml total), 1/2 tsp sea salt.

1) Crack an egg into the liquid measuring cup and top up with water until it reaches 140ml line. Mix the egg and water thoroughly, but avoid stirring it until it forms bubbles. Set aside.

2) Weigh 400gm plain flour and place into the noodlemaker.

3) Add 1/2 teaspoon sea salt into the flour and close the top cover down properly until you hear the loud "click".

Video 1 shows how i poured the egg mixture into the noodlemaker.



The noodlemaker will knead for a few minutes, then pause, and starts extruding the dough.

Video 2 shows the extruding process. I used the noodlemaker's medium round disc for this batch of Egg Noodles.



The noodlemaker will pause after it has extruded about 50% of the dough. It will then knead the dough a second time (shorter duration just to separate and loosen the dough a little), and continue to extrude until the machine stops.

Video 3 shows this process.



Remember to always flour your hands when handling the extruding noodle strands. Place left hand at the back of the extruding noodles to guide it smoothly down onto the plate (flour the plate too). Sprinkle flour onto the noodle bit by bit as it exits from the disc. Not too much excess flour or you will get cloudy water when you cook the Egg Noodles.

Always give your noodles a cold rinse to stop the cooking process. Agitate it a little to remove excess flour from the strands, drain and place it back into the hot cooking water for a few seconds just to warm it back. Drain off all excess water before placing your cooked noodles into a bowl. This will ensure you get perfect Homemade Egg Noodles with a springy bite each time. Do share this Video Guide with your noodle-loving friends. Enjoy :)
