Mix ingredients together with hands until doughy. Knead dough in a plastic bag (traditionally this is done with the feet). When the dough becomes rubbery, flatten with a wooden dowel or rolling pin until approximately 1/16 of an inch thick. Dust the flattened dough with flour and pleate to length of knife. Cut to desired thickness (1/6 of an inch recommended). Shake free excess flour, twist into bundles, and place in container.
Handmade noodles are best eaten promptly. Boil noodles for approximately five minutes. Add desired seasonings.
