Even though this was my late mother-in-law’s recipe, we nickname these “grandma noodles” since they don’t spring back when you roll them and have a delicious flavor. She produced the tastiest chicken and noodles for every family get-together, combining cooked noodles with homemade chicken broth and cooked chicken that had been shred. The dish was then served over mashed potatoes. Everyone adores these, and I’ve made them a lot. I hang the rounds to dry on pristine plastic hangers when producing numerous batches and having little counter space.
