• With hands, thoroughly mix egg into flour.
• Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
• (Add only enough water to form dough into a ball.).
• Turn dough onto well-floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
• Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
• Divide dough into 4 equal parts.
• Roll dough, 1 part at a time, into paper-thin rectangle, keeping remaining dough covered.
• Roll rectangle around rolling pin; slip out rolling pin.
• Cut dough cross-wise into 1/8-inch strips for narrow noodles and 1/4-inch for wide noodles.
• Shake out strips and place on towel to dry, about 2 hours.
• When dry, break dry strips into smaller pieces.
• Cook in 3 quarts boiling salted water (1 tablespoon salt) (We use chicken broth.) 12 to 15 minutes or until tender.
• Drain thoroughly.

Steps:

• Bring 2 quarts water and 2 tablespoons kosher salt to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 6 ounces egg noodles, stir once to make sure no noodles are sticking to each other, and cook according to the package directions until al dente texture, 6 to 8 minutes. Meanwhile, finely grate 1/2 ounce Parmesan cheese (about 1/4 packed cup), if using.
• Reserve 1/3 cup of the cooking water, then drain the noodles well. Return the noodles to the saucepan and set it over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons unsalted butter and 3 tablespoons of the cooking water, and stir and toss until the butter melts and coats the noodles, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add more cooking water if the noodles looks dry.
• Divide the noodles between 2 bowls and top with the Parmesan. Garnish with 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley leaves or 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley, if using.
