Combine the flour and salt. Make a well into the flour mix, either on your counter or in a large bowl.
Mix the eggs and oil together in a small bowl. Pour into the well and work everything together with a fork, starting from the center out.
Switch to using your hands (and a bench scraper) to continue making the dough and add water as needed to make everything come together. Knead into a firm dough ball, cover and rest for at least 30 minutes (up to a few hours).
Section the dough into quarters. If you have a pasta maker, you can use that to first roll out your dough sections and then cut into desired noodle shape.
But you can also make homemade egg noodles without a pasta machine. Dust the counter with flour. Roll out one dough section at a time with a rolling pin. Sprinkle more flour on top and roll up the pasta sheet from the short side.
With a sharp knife, slice the roll into desired thickness (about 5mm for tagliatelle). Unroll each slice and toss with flour. You can hang them on a rack to dry or spread the noodles out on the counter.
To cook the pasta, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add salt and then immerse the pasta. Fresh noodles don't take long at all. Depending on thickness, cook them for only 1-2 minutes.
Drain right away and drizzle with a little oil to prevent the egg noodles from sticking together. Divide the cooked noodles into bowls and top with hot soup broth (I used a Thai coconut curry broth, but especially chicken soup is awesome with homemade egg noodles).
