Medium egg noodles are a type of dry pasta made primarily from wheat flour and egg, which gives them a firm texture and a characteristic yellow color. Their medium size makes them ideal for a wide variety of preparations, from soups to stews and stir-fries.
Origin: Egg noodles have roots in European cuisine, especially in Italian and German gastronomy, although their use is widespread in world cuisine due to their versatility.
Properties: Thanks to the addition of egg in their dough, these noodles provide a higher protein content compared to other types of pasta. They are an excellent source of complex carbohydrates, which provide sustained energy. Furthermore, their texture allows them to perfectly absorb the flavors of broths, sauces, and other ingredients.
Synonyms in Spanish from Latin America: in different regions they may be known as fideos de pasta con huevo, fideos medianos con huevo, or simply fideos con huevo. In some countries, they are also called espaguetis de huevo when their shape is longer and thinner, although for the medium version the most common term is "medium egg noodles".
