Ingredients
  

  • 1 egg
  • All purpose flour
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl mix together 50% of one beaten egg, the salt and the flour, and knead with your fingertips until a firm, smooth dough forms. You add the flour step by step until it comes together into a soft non-sticky dough.
    It is hard to tell exactly how much flour you need 8depends on the size of your egg), you go by feel.
  • Pinch off small pieces of dough about the size of a lemon seed and roll them. Drop them onto a plate, sprinkle some flour over so they do not stick together.
    When you add them to a soup, stir immediately otherwise they stick together, cook them for about 8-10 minutes.
