Well, I should be feeling guilty 'cause I should have been proofreading all day.....but homemade noodles to go with the braised oxtails were just calling my name, so for the first time this year - homemade noodles.
Started with Black Pepper noodles (with all-purpose flour) - a recipe from an old C2C friend, Roberto. Man, these are delicious.
Then, I got to thinking about the whole wheat pastas I've been buying so thought I'd better go that direction also.
Taste testing - after cooking them both up and tossing the black pepper noodles with butter and the w.w. noodles with olive oil, we really preferred the all-purpose over the whole wheat. But after I put the dish together, oh man, they were equally good!!
We did make little piggys of ourselves along with a wonderful bottle of Zin.

Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.
