  dough. Knead thoroughly. Cover the dough with a damp
  cloth and let it stand for 30 minutes. Sprinkle a
  board and rolling pin with additional flour. Roll out
  the dough until it is paper-thin. Fold the dough into
  a long, loose roll and cut it crosswise into strips,
  1/10 inch wide. When unrolled, the dough strips should
  be at least 12 inches long. Cook for three or four
  minutes in boiling salted water
