Udon- Homemade Udon Noodles

As I mentioned in the article chan pon stair fry on noodle soup ramen, my father is a noodle lover. When I was small, we used  to make different kinds of homemade noodles together on weekends. The key to make good noodles was how much you beat the dough up. We stepped on the  dough or bang it on thle table. It was really fun.  

Three Christmas' ago, I won a bread maker from a raffle at work. Since then, I've been making different types of noodles. It's not as good as my father's (less beat-ups), but it's quick and taste good.

My favorite way of eating it is with soy sauce and freshly squeezed lime juice.

Ready in: 2 hours and 15 minutes

Ingredients for four:
130cc of water
300g of flour
12g of salt
15-20g oil 

[Prepare in a bowl]
Your favorite soup, sauce or dressing, plus vegetables

Required Equipment:
Bread maker or stand mixer + a dough hook, or your muscle!
Pasta maker or rolling pin + knife

Step 1: Dilute salt in water.

Step 2:  Add flour. Start your bread maker at the dough setting. (Start mixing in your mixer or by hand for about 7 minutes.) 

Step 3: When your bread maker beeps to add "dry ingredients", add 15g of oil. For a mixer and muscular person, once the dough crumbles, add oil and continue mixing or folding. Add oil accordingly.

 

Step 4: When the bread maker becomes quiet, turn it off and take out the dough and put it in a ziplock to rest for 1 hour. (Do not start the raising mood.)


Step 5:  Divid the bough into 3 balls and put some flours around.

Step 6: Using your pasta maker or pin, flatten the dough. 



Step 7: When your sheet becomes your liking in thickness, change the cutter to Fettucine. Or fold the sheet into 3 or 4, and cut it into noodles. Hang the fresh noodles on a dishwasher or oven to dry for 30 minutes.

Step 8: Measure noodles 100-110g each. Put them in a ziplock to freeze if needed.

Step 9: Boil water and cook noodles 45-50 second. Choose a large pan to boil water.

Step 10: Rinse cooked noodles in cold water.

Step 11: Serve it!
