Best Yet Extra Wide Egg Noodles
What it is
These are dried pasta noodles made with eggs, giving them a richer flavor and a tender texture when cooked. The extra-wide cut means they are broader than standard egg noodles. They are a pantry staple, perfect for a variety of hearty dishes. The noodles are dried for a long shelf life and are ready to be boiled and incorporated into your favorite meals. They come in a 16-ounce package.
How people cook with it
Egg noodles are a versatile pasta shape that pairs well with many sauces and ingredients. Their broad surface area is excellent for capturing creamy or chunky sauces.
- With stroganoff
- In chicken noodle soup
- Tossed with butter and herbs
- As a side dish
To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the dried egg noodles and cook according to package directions, typically around 7-10 minutes, until they are tender but still have a slight bite. Drain the noodles thoroughly in a colander. You can then toss them with your desired sauce, butter, or broth. They are also commonly added directly to soups during the last few minutes of cooking to absorb flavor.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to thinner egg noodles, these extra-wide noodles have a more substantial chew and hold up better to heavier sauces. Their broader surface area also makes them more visually appealing in dishes like casseroles or stroganoff.
Who it is for
Home cooks preparing comforting and classic pasta dishes will find these noodles useful.
How to keep the rest
Store the unopened package in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, ensure the remaining noodles are kept in an airtight container or resealable bag to maintain freshness and prevent them from absorbing moisture or odors.
