Make Ramen Noodles Yourself – That’s How it Works

Make ramen noodles yourself: this is how it works

The delicious ramen noodles can be made at home without much effort. A step-by-step guide and the required ingredients can be found here:

• You only need three ingredients for the ramen noodles: 250 g wheat flour, one to two teaspoons of baking soda, and 120 ml of water. First, you need to bake the baking soda. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and put in the oven at 200 degrees for 30 minutes.
• After the baking soda has cooled, mix it well with the water and add it to the flour. You have to knead the dough thoroughly until you get a smooth and firm mass. If available, you can use a food processor for this.
• Now you can roll out the dough with a rolling pin. You should wrap the resulting dough sheets in cling film and refrigerate for an hour. Then roll out thinner again and cut fine noodles with a knife. This step works much easier with a pasta machine.
• You can dust the noodles with a little flour to prevent them from sticking. And now you can cook the noodles in your broth.
