Into 2 beaten eggs mix flour to make a very stiff dough; knead until perfectly smooth then divide into portions and roll to 1-16 inch thickness; lay aside to dry the outside, then fold and cut into strips 1/4 inch wide. This may be thoroughly dried and in a close jar kept any length of time. To cook, drop into boiling water, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. When perfectly tender and the water all absorbed, add 1 1/2 cups of milk, salt, butter and bits of cheese to taste. Let this boil up well, then turn into a buttered dish, cover with grated cheese and bake until nicely brown.

Macaroni With Tomato Sauce

Originally Published:
Ann Arbor Cookbook, 1904

Cook 1/4 pound of macaroni in plenty of boiling salted water until when pressed with a fork against the side of the kettle it can be cut in two. Drain off the hot water, then pour water through and drain again. Cook 1/2 a can of tomatoes, or take enough stewed fresh tomatoes to make 1 pint, and press through a strainer. Melt 2 level tablespoons of butter, add 3 level tablespoons of flour and cook together until smooth, then add the strained tomato and cook until it thickens. Season with salt and pepper; put in the macaroni and heat it, stirring carefully so that the sauce may not burn, but do not break the macaroni.
