Dough:
-Mix flour+eggs+water+salt together, and work the dough. You want the dough to be slightly sticky, but not significantly so
-After dough has been made, I usually break into thirds and wrap in plastic wrap and put in fridge while I work with 1/3 of dough
-Roll dough till maybe an 1/8 of inch thick, and cut circles (I usually do about 3 inch in diameter)
