List of Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon olive oil
Recipe
Mix the flour and salt and form into a pile. Make a well in the center.
Put
the eggs, oil, and water in the well. With your hands, start pulling
the
flour into the well, mixing and pulling, mixing and pulling, until all
is
blended into dough. Form the dough into a ball and knead for 5 minutes
on a
floured surface. Divide dough into quarters and work with one quarter
at a
time (keeping the rest of the dough covered). On a floured surface,
with a
floured rolling pin, roll the dough in rectangular form as thin as you
can
get it. Gently fold the dough in thirds; and using a sharp knife cut
the
layered dough into 1/4 -inch wide strips. Gently unfold the strips to
their
full length and lay them on a towel or hang them over a hanger, to air
dry
for at least 30 minutes.
Meanwhile bring your largest pot of boiling water to a boil; add a
little
salt; add in the noodles. Cook just until al dente about 3 to 5
minutes.
(Remember, fresh noodles cook faster than packaged/dried pasta
noodles.)
Drain and toss with melted butter, a little chopped fresh parsley, and
grated Parmesan cheese; or serve with a favorite spaghetti sauce.
You can store freshly made, uncooked pasta (wrapped) in the fridge for
up to
5 days and in the freezer for several months. It also might be fun to
look
into making different ‘flavors’ of pasta, by adding herbs and spices to
the
dough.
