I just love y’all! I’m watching all your videos and having so much fun! I have an “old fashioned” noodle machine like yours that my husband got me and I’ve never used…..I’m getting that sucker out and making some ramen noodles! TOO much fun!!! Thank you!!!!!!❤❤❤
I agree, u guys are adorable! Thanks for your videos and company! God bless you and give you strength to go through the empty nest syndrome. I dont have any tips except to serve the Lord and stay busy. I also had to let 3 children leave the nest but God has been gracious to have them and our grandchildren near us. 😊 Keep on keeping on!🤗
Thank you so much! This was something I needed to hear today. Move out day for our oldest is tomorrow and I’m struggling a little. Such an odd feeling to let them go.
Made lots of pasta but never Ramen. Will definitely give it a go. We luuuuuv Ramen! Never heard of lye water but am willing to hunt for it. Thank you, guys. All your efforts to share, teach and entertain are very appreciated!! Off topic: next time u come to cali give a heads up.. we can drive up and meet you at Carrows for lunch or…. Could be fun.
The Mennonite way: when you have the “sheet” ready to run through the cutter, use your iron (set fairly low) to iron the sheet! Sounds crazy but it makes it easier to cut! Then leave them out to dry until you can hear a snap when you break a noodle! It could take a couple of days depending on your humidity level! You can jar them up and vacuum seal to put on your shelf!
@@LittleHillHomesteadGa it can be a bit unpleasant, hubby isn't wrong. I must've misunderstood what you said, I thought you hadn't tried making tonkatsu yet.
Interesting. I wonder how strong the lye in the water is. Sodium hydroxide is used in soap making and is very caustic. This could explain why ramen makes my daughter ill.
The bottle actually doesn’t say. I have lye for soap making and this is very different. Couldn’t be another ingredient? There isn’t much in the recipe. I’ll have to dig around a little and research this.
@@LittleHillHomesteadGa it could very well be the same only in very small quantities. Edit: I did a little research, it is in fact, potassium hydroxide which is old fashioned lye made by soaking wood ash in water. It is also used in old fashioned soaps. While baking soda can be used, it is not traditional. I'm curious if the concentration is strong enough in the bottle to actually make soap.
YEAH, nipple 😮 once got farm fresh eggs and was cracking them over the bowl and a half formed chick fell out with a black eyeball staring at me🤮 THAT took a LONG time to get over😱😂😂
It had a nipple on it...😂. My first ( and last) venture into pork belly involved a nipple in the skin. My husband tried to make it less weird( his words not mine) by trying to convince me it was a wart, not a nipple. NOT HELPING pal, not helping 😅
I would love for you to share all the recipes! You guys make me hungry when you cook!!

We got a fancy electric one and I hate it. Going back to the old crank one.
@@LittleHillHomesteadGa 🤣😂🤣…We should truly be neighbors…..we’d never get anything done for all the laughing we’d be doing! WHAT FUN!!!
You are so awesome. I look forward to all of your videos. I learned something new everyday.❤❤

Great tip! I’ll have to give it a try
You guys are so adorable. Very nice people...Thanks for sharing this recipe...Sherri-Idaho
Our pleasure!
Will you do a video making pasta using your semolina flour??
Here you go th-cam.com/video/Bvmp9wPXGkI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2RsJOsCDRgNrkomV
You really should try making the broth, it's soooo worth the effort and it's almost nothing but scraps so it's great for reducing food waste.
We usually do but my hubby hates the smell so I have to cook and can it outside. It’s been too hot to do that.
@@LittleHillHomesteadGa it can be a bit unpleasant, hubby isn't wrong. I must've misunderstood what you said, I thought you hadn't tried making tonkatsu yet.
So how do you wash your machine? I have one and they say not to put in water.
We don’t. Let it dry a few days and the pasta dries and falls off.

When i make noodles, i oil my hands so the dough dies stick to my hands
Great idea. I don't usually have issues with regular pasta but the Ramen noodles are a little more sticky.
Thank you this is healthier version than store bought.
YEAH, nipple 😮 once got farm fresh eggs and was cracking them over the bowl and a half formed chick fell out with a black eyeball staring at me🤮 THAT took a LONG time to get over😱😂😂
Worst nightmare!!!!
Lye????!!! I thought lye was dangerous!!
It’s different from what you use for soap.

It’s ruined it forever! I love that he tried to make it better
