No. 1707 — Homemade Noodle Dough
English historical translation of Molokhovets recipe No. 1707 from the 1901 Russian cookbook, retaining original methods and measures.
Make the same dough as for kolduny, No. 1691. Roll out and cut into strips a vershok wide.
Stack strips with a light dusting of flour between them, shred finely and spread on the table to dry.
Shake the noodles by hand to leave loose flour behind, then boil in stock, water or milk according to use for ten to fifteen minutes.
The same dough is used for lazanki and lamantsi.
