Fresh Uncooked Egg Noodles

 Cook small amounts at a time (200g) in a large pot of boiling water as noodles need room to move around
to prevent under cooking or clumping    
 DO NOT oversoak

Boil
Bring a large pot of water to a full rolling boil. Open bag and submerge loosened noodles in boiling water. Stir quickly and frequently, separating noodles with a fork or chopsticks for 1-1½ minutes or until just cooked (similar to concept of 'al dante' ie firm but not hard). Remove from water and immediately place under cold water (to prevent further cooking) then strain. Separate any clumping noodles.

Noodles are now ready for use.

 Lubricate well with vegetable oil if not using within 10 minutes to prevent sticking (recommended), before storing away for later use.
