Dehydrate homemade egg noodles?

[terri46355]

Is is safe to dry/dehydrate homemade egg noodles and store them in the cupboard for later use? We are getting lots of eggs. I would like to make egg noodles for the winter, but would rather dry them than freeze them if it is safe to store them this way.

I make homemade egg noodles and dry them on the table. Having a large family, I make 9 batches at a time, and they are used within 4-6 weeks. I dry them at room temperature, not in my dehydrator, but the humidity is lower with the forced air furnace right now. Throughout the drying period we "fluff" them and turn them over to ensure even drying. Just make sure they are very dry before you store them or they will mold. This procedure was suggested in an Artisan Pasta book that I purchased.
