Homemade Spinach Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• Put spinach and salt in blender. Pulse a few times until finely chopped, not totally a clear liquid.
• If cooked mashed carrots 1 1/2 cups, if cooked mashed sweet potatoes, 1 1/4 cups.
• (The salt brings out the water in the spinach).
• In large bowl, add flour.
• Make a well in the middle, a deep hole.
• Add beaten eggs, margarine and spinach mix (or carrot or sweet potato mix.).
• Fold the flour in all four direction over the well.
• Then add the water.
• Keep folding the flour over and over.
• If it is too wet, add 1/4 cup flour. Then use hands to mix.
• Knead dough with the back of your palms until it becomes smooth. If it is sticky, add a little more flour.
• Form into a large ball and place in a bowl.
• Cover and let rest for about 10 to 15 minutes.
• Divide dough, into 3 portions. Turn out each portion on a floured board, roll to.
• about 1/4 inch thickness. Put through a pasta machine if you have one. If not, try to roll out to 1/8 inch thickness and cut.
• Into 1/2 inch wide noodles. You can dry in the air, I prefer to dry on a tray in the oven at 200°F--it is faster. I turn the noodles a few times before they are dry.
• Note: Some spinach has more water. If it has larger leaves it contains more water than smaller leaves.That is why you need the addition of more flour if needed.
• Store in a air tight container.

Steps:

• 1. Place cleaned and pat dry, spinach in a pan with the 2 Tablespoons the water. Cover and cook. Then place in a blender,chop it up. With a spoon squeeze what little water is in the spinach. Place spinach in a bowl,add egg salt and flour mix to make a stiff dough. Turn out on a well floured surface. Knead a couple minutes Roll out very thin. and then.. flour the top of the spinach surface. Let rest 20 minutes.
• 2. Now gently roll it up loosley.. Slice the roll into 1/4 inch wide strips. Unroll the strips and set them out to dry. Hint: my grandma used a CLEANED broom handle, set across two chairs! to hold the pasta while drying. while it is drying. Cook as desired..in water with a little oil added to the water. Drain and serve with ...a smidgen of butter and grated parmesan cheese sprinkle on top. Magnifacento!! Note: Pasta Foto #1 from reciperebuild Foto#2 A Red Hatter bring a broom to you!.... LOL

Steps:

• 1. Note: You can use this recipe for a pasta machine as well
• 2. Wash the Spinach by rinsing several times under water. Strain
• 3. Take the wet leaves and place in a pot covered. Cook until wilted. You do not need to add more water. The wet leaves will do. Rinse and cool under cold water and strain well. Squeeze a little water out.
• 4. Place spinach,eggs,oil,and salt in a blender and puree mixture. Take the 2 cups of flour and place in bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour.
• 5. Pour spinach mixture in to well,and mix with a fork. If it is dry. Add a little water at a time to get an elastic, but not sticky dough. If to sticky add more flour etc.
• 6. Place on floured surface and knead for 10 minutes,and let the dough rest for 10 more minutes. Cut dough in half. Roll dough half out on lightly floured surface, in a 13x12 inch rectangle. You can trim the edges with a knife to make a perfect rectangle,and reserve dough for other batch. With a knife cut Dough in to 2 inch wide noodles. Place on a rack for at least 10 minutes before cooking.
• 7. In a wide pan bring water to a rapid boil. Add a tablespoon of olive oil,and a tablespoon of salt to water. Boil for about 20 minutes. Rinse under cold water and place between wax paper or parchement paper. You can refrigerate up to 24 hours,or use right away.

Steps:

• Combine spinach and water in a saucepan. Cover, and cook till spinach is very tender. Cool slightly.
• Place spinach and liquid in blender container. Add egg and salt. Cover, and blend till smooth. Transfer to a bowl. Add enough flour to make a stiff dough.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 1 minute. Roll very thin on a floured surface. Let rest 20 minutes. Roll up loosely. Slice 1/4 inch wide. Unroll. Cut into desired lengths. Spread out on a rack to dry for 2 hours.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and fill a medium bowl with ice water. Add the spinach to the pot and cook until wilted, about 30 seconds; drain, then plunge into the ice water. Once chilled, remove the spinach to a kitchen towel and squeeze until dry.
• Combine the blanched spinach, whole eggs and egg yolk, olive oil and a big pinch of salt in a blender and blend until smooth. Mound the flour on a work surface. Make a well in the center, 4 to 5 inches in diameter with high walls. Add the spinach mixture to the well and, using a fork, gradually mix flour from the inner edge of the well into the wet ingredients. Continue incorporating the flour until a rough sticky dough forms. Use a spatula or bench scraper to gather up any loose bits of flour and dough, then use your hands to gather and knead the whole thing together. (If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.) Knead until a smooth and slightly tacky bright green dough forms, about 6 minutes. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
• Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces; press each into a rough rectangle. Cover 3 of the pieces and set aside. Lightly flour the remaining piece of dough and feed the dough through the widest setting on a pasta maker. Fold the strip in half and feed it through again. Move to the next setting and feed the dough through this setting twice without folding, lightly flouring as needed. Repeat until you are at the third-to-last setting. The dough will be thin but not transparent, about 1/8 inch thick. Lightly flour the pasta sheet, then transfer to a floured baking sheet; halve the sheet crosswise if it's hanging off the baking sheet. Repeat the process with the remaining 3 pieces of dough.
• Attach a long noodle cutter to the pasta maker. Feed each sheet of dough through the cutter, gathering the pasta on the other side. Lightly sprinkle with flour and shape into a loose nest. Return to the baking sheet.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta, gently separating the strands with tongs. Cook until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain. Toss with your sauce, adding the reserved cooking water as needed to loosen.

Steps:

• Combine water and ice in a bowl. Preheat a skillet over medium heat; add spinach. Cook, stirring continuously, until spinach turns bright green, about 30 seconds. Plunge into ice water bath; remove when spinach is lukewarm. Squeeze out excess moisture with cheese cloth.
• Combine spinach, eggs, olive oil, and salt in a food processor; blend until smooth. Add flour; blend until dough no longer sticks to the blades, adding flour as needed.
• Roll dough into a ball; wrap in plastic wrap. Rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Remove plastic wrap from dough. Transfer to a work surface generously dusted with flour; cut dough into 4 pieces with a sharp knife. Roll out dough with a rolling pin to 1/4-inch thickness; shape into rectangles.
• Dust pasta maker rollers with flour. Run the dough rectangles through a pasta maker on the widest setting. Repeat rolling dough through rollers, gradually reducing the setting to desired thickness. Change pasta maker's attachment to preferred noodle shape; cut pasta with pasta maker.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Lower pasta gently into water; use a spoon to keep noodles from sticking together. Cook until pasta is firm but soft, 3 to 6 minutes. Remove from the water with tongs; transfer to a bowl.

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine spinach, eggs and salt; process until smooth. Pour into a bowl. Gradually add enough flour to make a firm, but not sticky, dough. , On a floured surface, knead about 20 times. Wrap in plastic and let rest 30 minutes. Divide dough in half. On a floured surface, roll each half to 1/16-in. thickness. Roll up jelly-roll style and cut into 1/4-in. slices. Separate the slices and let rest on a clean towel for at least 1 hour. Cook noodles in boiling salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes; drain.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook egg noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain and return noodles to pot.
• While the noodles boil, melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic in melted butter until lightly browned and soft, about 8 minutes. Stir baby spinach into the onion mixture; saute until the spinach is just barely wilted, about 2 minutes.
• Stir spinach mixture into the noodles; season with salt and pepper.
