The kitchen and factory of this local, family-owned business was personally inspected by the Lehman family. Our impression? Sparkling clean! Their "secret family recipe" may be Amish, but the best equipment in the world is Italian, and that's what they use. The recipe itself is over 40 years old, and it's thicker and heartier than other noodles. The wheat noodles are made from hard winter durum wheat, not lower-grade semolina.

Other company policies include using the absolute freshest ingredients, including locally grown eggs; and a scientifically controlled drying process, which they describe as the "secret of a good noodle."

Wide noodles are .5" wide, and extra wide noodles are 1" wide.

Noodle Pudding
Serves 9

7 1/2 cups uncooked wide egg noodles
1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
6 T. butter, softened
1/2 c. sugar
3 eggs
1 c. milk
1 c. apricot nectar

Topping:
1 c. cornflake crumbs

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. On stove top, cook noodles according to package instructions. Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter and sugar. Beat in eggs. Gradually stir in milk and apricot nectar.

Drain noodles and return to the pan. Add cream cheese mixture and toss to coat. Transfer to a 9"x13" baking dish.

In a small bowl, combine the topping ingredients and sprinkle over noodles.
