This is more about how to make the noodles than a full dish. It's surprisingly easy to do. Making it together as a family can be fun! Recipe background: I wanted to eat delicious udon, so I decided to try making it myself.

Steps

1

Mix the flours together well with chopsticks. Pour the saltwater over the flour and mix with chopsticks. Once it starts to come together, knead it into a dough.
2

Once the dough forms a ball, place it in a large plastic bag (like a rice bag). Step on the dough to flatten it, then fold it and step on it again. Repeat this process 7 times.
3

Cut the dough in half and shape each piece into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 6 hours.
4

Dust a cutting board with flour and roll out the dough with a rolling pin into a rectangle, about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick.
5

Fold the dough and cut it into even-width noodles. Dust with flour and separate the noodles.
6

Boil the noodles in a large pot for about 10 minutes. Rinse the noodles under cold water, rubbing them gently to remove any stickiness. Drain in a colander. Enjoy with your favorite toppings or broth.
