Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Cooked turkey (shredded or diced)
- 8 cups Chicken or turkey broth
- 3 medium Carrots (sliced)
- 2 stalks Celery (sliced)
- 1 medium Yellow onion (diced)
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs (for homemade noodles)
- 1.25 cups All-purpose flour (for homemade noodles)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt (for homemade noodles)
- 1 tablespoon Water (optional, for noodle dough if needed)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil (optional, for sautéing)
Instructions
Start by making the homemade noodle dough. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gradually mix in 1 1/4 cups of all-purpose flour until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add 1 tablespoon of water. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5 minutes until smooth, then cover it with a damp towel and let it rest for 20 minutes.
While the dough rests, prepare the soup base. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large stockpot over medium heat (optional, for added flavor). Sauté the diced onion, garlic, carrots, and celery for 5–7 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Stir in 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, 1 teaspoon of dried parsley, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Add 8 cups of chicken or turkey broth to the pot and bring it to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
After the dough has rested, roll it out on a floured surface to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use a sharp knife or pasta cutter to slice the dough into thin strips to form noodles. Separate the strips and dust them with flour to prevent sticking.
Add the shredded or diced turkey to the simmering soup and cook for 5 minutes to heat through.
Drop the fresh noodle strips into the soup and cook for another 6–8 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and cooked through.
Taste the soup for seasoning adjustments and add more salt or pepper if needed. Serve warm and enjoy your homemade turkey noodle soup!
