Delighted to have been the conduit to connect my kin at the St. John's Grange with Donna and Georgann for this beautiful capture of a tradition that makes a difference in my hometown-community in so many ways. Thanks for your interest in these folks and their story. I'll see you at the noodle supper in November! Liz
Great tribute to such a living community food tradition!!!
and... here in a half-vegetarian household, I'm puzzling how (or IF?) this basic recipe could work with some veg. substitute(s) for the BIRD!? preferably some basic broth & contents that have some traditional roots!? Thoughts, anyone!?
I spent a summer in Nebraska with my Uncle Jack and my Aunt Jo, who was from Czeschlovakia. She made delicious noodles in a similar way (but not in the same quantities!) and throughout the long summer it was a special treat when she'd pull out the ingrediants and the rolling pin and make them.

yum. And I love hearing about the Grange culture, such a Midwestern staple for me.
