Chrissy, yes, the same machine rolls and cuts the pasta. Mine has three sets of rollers… one with adjustments to roll the dough to the desired thinness, and the other two cut the dough sheets into two sizes of noodles. The handle fits into whichever roller is being used. It’s really fun and easy. We also make shaped pasta… elbows, twists, hollow spaghetti, etc… with another pasta machine that extrudes the shapes.

I’m totally new at this, but i’m pretty excited and interested. I was wondering if your pasta roller also cuts the pasta? Or do you have to have two Seperate machines? Thanks so much!

I came searching for a homemade noodle recipe. My husband LOVES his late mother’s chicken and noodles, and she only showed me how to make noodles once, about 9 years ago. I’ll be trying this out tonight.

I have only a few vague memories of my great aunt Hazel making egg noodles & roast beef (& mashed potatoes & green beans & jello salad!) when we went to visit her in southern Ohio 50 years ago. I’m going to try your recipe & instructions, plus what I remember of Aunt Hazel laying her cut noodles on clean tea towels to dry, to see if I can recreate my childhood favorite meal. Thanks for clear directions!

I made these yesterday, I have never made noodles before in my life, and went totally on your directions, I made them by hand,and rolled them out by hand,long story short, I served my husband an amazing bowl of cream of chicken served over a little nest of handmade noodles, and he absolutly raved!! now he wants ONLY homemade ones! I made another batch immediatly after in my kitchenaid with the dough hook, It worked perfectly! I went today and bought 10 dozen eggs, and borrowed a noodle cutter, I cant wait to make noodles tomarrow! Thankyou so much for posting all the info!

Hi Shirley…I was checking your archives looking for Easter recipes and came across this one for homemade noodles. I am of the food processor/pasta machine persuasion. My late mother rolled them out by hand. I tried that ONCE. You have to have arms like Conan to do that! Believe me, I had new respect for the process, as my dough shrunk back every time I rolled it out. Needless to say my next purchase was a pasta machine. When I met my husband I was still cooking the noodles in chicken broth. They were like glue, what with all the starch. He said, why don’t you boil the noodles in water first, then add the broth? My next voila moment. And I have to tell you, after mixing the dough in the food processor, I knead 100 times, the most I have patience for. My noodles are very “rustic”, but thin! Love your blog, thanks for your efforts for us.

I was looking for a food processor recipe for noodles. This one came out great and it cut the kneading time way down which with me is important as I have severe arthritis in my hands and kneading can be a chore. Thank ytou for publishing this recipe.

Thank you for posting this! I got my grandma’s recipe from my mom and it turns out they are very close to this. I would love to make a bunch at a time and then give them away, but I am wondering if you would know how long they keep either frozen or just dried in an airtight container?

Hi Lottie… I think noodles made with the bread flour will turn out great. I would certainly use it!
