One of the many traditional German side dishes popular in Lancaster County is homemade egg noodles. I learned the art of noodle making from my Old Order Mennonite grandmother and aunts as they made dishpans of noodles for their large families. The Atlas Noodle Maker I have was a gift from my late mother-in-law. These Perogies are made with sourdough pasta that has been fermented for more than 24 hours. With this recipe you can also make noodles and even Ravioli. Perogies and ravioli are a bit time consuming but we do enjoy them for special occasions.

I rolled the dough through #1, *fold in half, rolled again. Repeat from *twice. Roll all dough pieces through #1. Turn setting to #4 and roll each dough piece again. I lay the sheets of dough on parchment paper.
