Shannon's Chicken Noodle Soup

Here is a great chicken noddle soup recipe from Shannon Gates (a awesome girlfriend of mine from college) Also Congrats to Shan and her husband George! They are proud parents of a little baby girl! Their little girl Charlotte Frances was born 3 and 1/2 weeks ago!

"When the weather changes, there is nothing I crave more than chicken noodle soup from scratch. Make a chicken stock: I like to do mine in the crock pot over night. One whole chicken carcass and rough chopped onions carrots and celery. Water to cover. Add the fresh spices you like best, I always use thyme and a few bay leaves, lots of salt too. Now heres the fun part. Noodles are EASY but take a little time! no pre purchased noodles please.

3/4 C all purpose flour in bowl, make a "well" and add 1 egg that has been barely combined with 1T water 1/2t salt and 1t oil. mix with hands till dough can be balled and comes clean from your hands. Knead for 10 min, no cheating! let it rest, covered, for an hour.
While dough rests, make your soup. Strain broth and add fresh veggies and chicken pieces from strained carcass.roll out dough, stretch it till nearly paper thin and translucent! sprinkle flour on dough as needed let "dry' for 30 min then roll dough up like a scroll and cut noodle strips, as if cutting a sushi roll. Cook noodles in rapidly boiling salted water for ten min and then add to soup. YUM! Hope you enjoy trying this recipe!"
