These whole wheat noodles were delicious!! I used them in my cream of chicken noodle soup and they added a wonderful, hearty flavor to the soup. I've been buying whole wheat pasta in the grocery store for a couple of years now because we have been trying to switch from using white pasta to whole wheat pasta, but I've never made whole wheat pasta. It was a little harder to work with than my usual white wheat pasta dough that I use, but with a little patience it all worked out. I made the dough in my food processor and I replaced 1 Tablespoon of the water with 1 Tablespoon of olive oil. I rolled out and cut the pasta with my hand crank pasta machine. The dough was stickier than I'm used to, but by dusting extra flour on the dough every time I rolled it through the machine, it kept it from sticking to the rollers/ cutting blades. My family loved the flavor that the noodles added to the soup!! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe...it is definitely a keeper!!<br/>*Made for Spring 2011 PAC*
