Homemade Pasta
Make homemade pasta dough for your meals.
Equipment
- 1 Pasta maker
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 3 large eggs
- 1 T. olive oil
- 1/2 t. salt
Instructions
- Put flour into a bowl or the mixing bowl of a stand mixer.
- (Optional) If you want to add fresh herbs, add them now.
- Add eggs, salt, and olive oil to bowl.
- Mix until dough starts to form a ball.
- Move to countertop or board, and knead for about five to eight minutes. A Kitchen Aid can do some of this work for you, but it's also easy to do by hand.
- Form dough into an oval, and wrap in plastic wrap. Set on counter until ready to roll, at least 30 minutes.
- When ready to roll pasta, use a knife to cut off a slab, form it into a rectangle, and roll through pasta maker until desired thickness. My pasta maker starts at zero, and I roll to seven.
