How to make Whole Wheat Noodles

Step 1
Sift both flours onto your work surface and shape them into a mound with a well in the center (volcano shape).
Step 2
In the center of the flour, add the eggs, oil, and the salt dissolved in half a cup of water.
Step 3
Gradually combine all the ingredients by hand. If necessary, add more water until you achieve a soft, elastic dough.
Step 4
Place the dough ball in a bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
Step 5
After resting, roll out the dough with a rolling pin, sprinkling it with flour or semolina as needed to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Cut the dough into rectangles, roll them up, and slice them with a knife into ribbon-shaped noodles.
