Check with your local pastry supplier to find out if the flour is high gluten, medium or low gluten owing to most flour mill processor does not label the type of the flour (well, in my Malaysia, they are called by the brands, Blue Key – high gluten, Anchor – high gluten, Rose – low gluten, etc).
Otherwise, you can also use all-purpose flour to make these egg noodles. All-purpose flour is medium gluten content.
Checking the Dough
To check the dough, tear one small piece of dough out and roll into a ball. Gently flatten and stretch it to observe.
If the dough is too wet, they will stick to your hands, then add a little more flour.
If the dough is too dry, they break apart easily, then add a little more water.
The right consistency will not stick to your hand and also does not break apart easily.

Place the dough back into the mixing bowl and sprinkle more flour over the dough then cover the mixing bowl with a cling wrap or a damp cloth.
Let the dough rest for 30 minutes.
Flatten, Roll and Cut
Prepare a clean working station.
Generously flour the surface and place the dough on it.
Gently flatten the dough with your palm.
Then begin flattening it with a rolling pin.
Once you have reached the desired thickness, generously flour the dough sheets.
Fold it a couple of layers.
Use a clean knife and cut them into the desired width of the noodle strand.
Add more flour and gently mix them up.
Cooking
Blanch the egg noodle with boiling water for about 30 seconds.
Pair the noodles with your desired sauces or simply stir fry it.
