| 1. Mix the flour and salt in a bowl. | 2. Whisk eggs lightly and add. Mix with the flour. Add water (or milk) carefully, little by little, mixing and kneading, until you have a soft, elastic dough. | 3. Cover and leave for 30 minutes. Then roll out thinly on a floured surface (about 1/4 " or 3 mm thick). Sprinkle flour over the dough, and spread lightly. | 4. Do one of the following: either slice the dough into long, thin strips, OR roll up the dough lightly as you would a swiss roll, and slice thinly. These strips can be cut crosswise again, about 3" long. | 5. Heat the milk, butter, cinnamon and citrus zest in a large pot, until it almost comes to a boil. Add the floured strips of dough and cook for 25 minutes over very gentle heat. | 6. When the dough strips rise to the top (it may well be in less than 25 mins), add the cup of sugar, stir carefully, and simmer until the mixture is thick and creamy. | 7. Ladle into bowls and enjoy while warm to hot. Extra cinnamon can be sprinkled on top. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
