Grandma Jones Noodle Recipe

Updated: Mar 27, 2020

Three ingredients are all you need to make your homemade soup even more homemader. That's a word. My great grandma Jones had many mouths to feed so I know she probably made thousands of these noodles and the fact the recipe has passed down the generations means it's a keeper.


Growing up, we knew soup was going to be special when you saw Grandma Jones noodles being made. We were always eager to help shake the flour off before they went into the pot and the most exciting part of the meal was to see who got the longest noodle, the shortest, or the most crazy shaped one. My grandma still makes these, my mom makes them, and I plan to make them too.

Three ingredients you already have in your pantry and fridge is all that stands between you and a bowl full of soup heaven. You don't even have to make the soup yourself, just open a box of store bought stuff and you're good to go. Want to make homemade soup the easier way? Costco rotisserie chicken, a box of low sodium chicken broth and some random frozen veggies and spices. 

 

Grandma Jones Noodles

Ingredients 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour 3 or 4 large eggs 1 teaspoon salt Instructions Measure out the flour into a large bowl and set aside. In a small bowl, lightly beat eggs. Add in the salt and stir. Add the eggs to the flour and stir with a fork. Add more flour if necessary to make the dough the stiffness of pie dough. Stir ingredients until just blended. Roll out on a well floured surface and cut into strips for noodles. Tip, use a pizza cutter or see alternative method at the end of this recipe. Make basic chicken soup of chicken, onion, celery, and carrot. Bring the soup to a rolling boil and gently drop in the noodles. Boil until noodles are done, around 10 minutes. These noodles will come out all bumpy and lumpy and in weird shapes and sizes. Another way to make the noodles Roll the dough out on the floured surface into a rectangle and then roll up like you would when you make cinnamon rolls. Use a sharp knife to slice off 1/4" pieces from the log. You don't have to be precise, it doesn't matter! When you have all the noodles cut, shake off the excess flour and add to your soup.
