Homemade noodles

I bought a noodle maker a few years ago for about $20 but rarely make them. It does make nice noodles - here's a receipe I need to try. With the noodle maker you make the dough and then the noodle maker cuts it into strips. It works pretty good.

Noodle Dough

2 Cups Flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 eggs, well beaten
2 TB warm water

Sift flour and salt onto a pastry board, make a well in the center and add eggs and water. Work the flour into the egg mixture, adding more water if necessary to make a stiff but malleable dough. Knead on the board until smooth. Divide dough in half and let it rest for 30 minutes, covered. Roll out as thin as possible and cut into any desired shapes. Spread noodles on board and let them dry well before using.
