I'm fairly new to celiac diseas and was wondering if anyone can convert this recipe into a gluten-free recipe? My mom makes these at Thanksgiving and Christmas every year and I absolutely LOVE them, but being diagnosed with celiac means I can't have them anymore unless I can convert this recipe. Any advice or help?

Egg Noodles
2-1/2 cups flour
1 pinch salt
1/2 c. milk
2 eggs, beaten
1 T. butter

1. Mix flour & salt with beaten egg, butter and milk.
2. Mix and knead until smooth (approx. 5 min.).
3. Let set for about 10 min. then roll out like a jelly roll log and cut to desired width, then unroll and let them dry.

I make noodles occasionally and follow my "normal" recipe, just use gluten-free flour. The flour mix I use is 3 C Brown rice flour (you might experiment with white rice flour), 1 C Potato starch, 1 C Tapioca starch and 2 tsp. Xanthan gum. Sift together 3 times and then measure your flour from this. Then, add an additional teaspoonful of xanthan gum to your flour and sift at least twice. This will help the noodles stick together for rolling out. It won't be perfect, but the noodles do taste good. I make an egg-free noodle with this flour and even make it into ravioli.
