Servings: persons

5 lbs roasting hen
1 onion, sliced
1 carrot, sliced
3 sprigs parsley
1 tablespoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1 ¼ cups cake flour
¼ teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 ½ teaspoons unsalted butter, room temperature
2 ½ tablespoons water (about)
2 medium baking potatoes, peeled, cubed
½ cup celery
3 fresh thyme sprigs
1 cup frozen peas

1
For the soup: Put the hen into a large pot.
2
Add cold water to just cover the hen, plus the next 6 ingredients.
3
Bring to a boil and simmer, partially covered until chicken is done, about 1 hour.
4
Remove chicken from pot and cool.
5
Remove the skin and bones from the chicken and cut into bite size pieces.
6
At this point I like to chill the cooking liquid over night to congeal the fat and discard it.
7
Cover and refrigerate the chicken as well, if you choose to do this.
8
For the noodles: Blend flour and salt in a processor.
9
Add butter and egg.
10
Pulse in enough water to make dough.
11
Remove dough from processor and form into a ball.
12
Divide ball into 4 pieces.
13
Flatten and generously flour each piece.
14
Roll until very thin (1/16 inch), or run through the various settings of a pasta roller until the dough is about 1/16 inch thick, flouring as needed.
15
Cut dough into desired length and width.
16
I like mine about 1x2 inches.
17
Bring the cooking liquid, potatoes, celery and thyme to a boil in a large pot.
18
Cook until potatoes are done, about 15 minutes.
19
Add frozen peas and bring back to a boil.
20
Add noodles by the handfuls and submerge in the cooking liquid with a spoon.
21
Boil until noodles are tender, about 6 minutes.
22
Add cut up chicken meat and reheat.
23
Serve.
