What it is

How people cook with it

Egg noodles are a versatile pasta shape. They are excellent in both savory and sometimes even sweet dishes.

  • In hearty noodle bakes
  • With rich meat sauces
  • As a base for creamy casseroles
  • In flavorful brothy soups

To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the egg noodles and stir gently to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until they reach your desired tenderness, typically al dente. Drain the noodles thoroughly. They can then be tossed with butter, oil, or your favorite sauce. For casseroles, they are often combined with other ingredients before baking. They absorb flavors from broths and sauces beautifully, making them a great choice for many dishes.

How it differs from similar foods

Compared to thinner egg noodles, these extra-wide noodles have a more robust texture. Their broader surface area means they can capture and hold chunkier sauces and ingredients more effectively. They also tend to cook slightly differently due to their size.

Who it is for

Home cooks looking for a satisfying pasta option for family meals.
