Making the soup consists of mixing the flour, kneading the dough, chopping the vegetables and meat and boiling the soup. Start working with the dough when you are sure that everything boiling in the soup is well cooked. Shaping the dough and flattening it and then pulling and cutting it off, all at the same time, right into the boiling soup. As soon as you are finished with the dough, the noodle soup is ready to cool down and be served.
