Spelt noodles are a type of pasta made from spelt flour, an ancient grain that has been cultivated for thousands of years. These noodles are a nutritious and delicious alternative to traditional wheat noodles, and can be used in a variety of dishes such as stir-fries, soups, and salads. Spelt noodles have a slightly nutty flavor and firmer texture than regular wheat noodles, and can be easily made at home using a few simple ingredients. They are also a great source of protein, fiber, and essential vitamins and minerals, making them a healthy addition to your diet.

Instructions

1.	In a large bowl, combine the spelt flour, egg, vegetable oil, and enough water to form a smooth and elastic dough.
2.	Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes, then wrap it in plastic wrap and let it rest for 15 minutes.
3.	Roll out the dough with a rolling pin, then cut it into thin noodles of your desired length.
4.	Boil a pot of water, add a pinch of salt, then carefully add the noodles to the boiling water.
5.	Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the noodles are tender but still firm, then drain and serve hot with your favorite sauce or toppings.
