Like many of us there seemed to be one thing that made our family more unique than anyones. For us it was those great Sunday afternoon dinners or family reunions at Granny Franer's where she would make her chicken and noodles, then whip up some mashed potatoes and serve them both in the most mouth watering creamy broth that you just couldn't get enough of. As I recall this story those vivid memories still endure.
I can still picture her carefully measuring different flours, spices, seasonings and eggs that she would separate. Then in amazing speed put everything together in this huge bowl and mix with her hands until she got what she said was the "right feel". I never really understood that "right feel " phrase until I started making the noodles also. Now after thousands of dough balls I know what that means. No, I can't describe it!
Once the right feel was there Granny Franer would wait for a while then turn this huge ball of dough on her kitchen table and slowly start rolling the noodles out with an oak rolling pin. With amazing precision she could roll em out to a super huge thin flat layer. Since there were 13 kids you can imagine the table size, somehow the noodles stretched end to end. Then, quicker than you could say can I help, she would have the noodles cut and ready. To this very day I would swear she could cut noodles quicker than any machine!
We want you to experience that same feeling of togetherness we had and maybe relive a little bit of that lost childhood when innocence and wonderment gave way to sheer joy with each mouth watering bite of Granny Franer's Homemade Chicken n Noodles.
Look for us at a festival or event near you, then relax and get ready to eat. Suppers almost ready, come join us, won't you?
