Homemade Noodles

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt

Combine ingredients in food processor. Process until grain-like. Transfer to bowl and press crumbs together. Knead a few time to incorporate and set aside in a covered bowl to rest while you're assembling the pasta machine. Divide dough in halve and cover the rest up. On the thickest setting (1) run the pasta through that setting several times to knead the dough. Fold it over itself and feed it. After you feel it is correct, narrow the thickeness each time and stop after you've ran it through #4. Cut the dough using the machine and lay it out to dry (hanging is best).
