Noodles are a type of pasta of Asian origin, originally known as Chinese noodles, but popularized by Italy. In fact, the word "noodles" comes from the Italian verb "tagliare," which means to cut or carve. And... what do we mean by fresh egg pasta? Fresh egg pasta refers to pasta that, after being kneaded, rolled, flattened, cut, and cooked for the first time, is kept moist in its packaging and only needs to be boiled in water to cook. Its nutritional properties can vary depending on the recipe and the quantities used. For example, 100 grams of fresh egg pasta contains 70 grams of carbohydrates, 13 grams of protein, 374 kcal, vitamins A and B12, and minerals such as iron, sodium, magnesium, and phosphorus. It is frequently found in supermarkets in a wide variety of brands and presentations, but its flavor and freshness will never be the same as homemade pasta. A simple and easy recipe to make.

FRESH EGG PASTA NOODLES
This recipe can be made with or without a pasta machine. If you don't have a pasta machine, you'll need a rolling pin and a knife to cut the pasta. Ingredients (1 serving):
- 75g fresh pasta flour
- 25 g semolina rimacinata
- 1 egg
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of mushroom powder mix (optional)
Preparation (approx. 1 hour): 1. Mix the two flours with the salt and mushroom powder (optional). 2. Form a well in the center of the flour mixture and add a beaten egg. 3. Mix the ingredients and knead until you obtain a smooth dough. 4. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. 5. Remove the dough from the refrigerator. 6. Dust the dough well with flour to prevent sticking. 7. If you have a pasta machine, divide the dough into two parts. First, pass the first portion of dough through the smooth roller. Start with the widest setting and gradually move to the thinner rollers until you reach your desired thickness (about 2 mm). Dust the dough with flour each time you pass it through the roller. 8. Repeat the process with the second piece of dough. 9. If you don't have a pasta machine, roll out the dough with a rolling pin until it is about 2 mm thick. Flour your work surface as needed. (Once the dough is very thin and smooth, it's time to cut the pasta. This step can be done, again, with a pasta machine or by hand.) 10. If you have a machine, pass both pieces of dough through the noodle attachment and flour them well so they don't stick together. 11. If you don't have a machine, flour the dough well and roll it up into a spiral. With a knife, cut the noodles to your desired width (about 5 mm). 12. Unroll the noodles and flour them well so they don't stick together. 13. Boil the noodles for about 2 minutes and serve with your favorite sauce. Enjoy!
