Which Noodles To Use
When I make buttered noodles, I prefer to use wide egg noodles. Because of their wide shape, the butter can adhere to a large amount of surface area.
How To Cook Egg Noodles
Egg noodles should be cooked in a lot of salted water, just like any other pasta. You fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Then add salt. Quite a bit of salt. Then you add the noodles.
You use a lot of water so that the water remains extremely hot even after you’ve added all of the pasta. Additionally, it promotes more even cooking of the pasta by increasing the flow of water and noodles.
After adding the pasta to the boiling water, give everything a quick stir. The noodles can readily begin to stick together as soon as they are submerged in the water and beginning to get moist. Sticking can be avoided by adding a lot of water and stirring.
Reduce the water to a simmer after it reaches a boil again. This sometimes takes some jiggling to get the right temperature. The water should only be barely bubbling in the pot.
I turn down the heat to low on my stovetop, stir every now and then, and watch what happens. I turn the heat up to medium-low if the water cools and stops bubbling altogether.
Every minute or so, stir the pot of simmering noodles until the desired level of tenderness is achieved (see below). Utilize the guidelines provided on your pasta bag to ascertain the approximate duration.
