Homemade Pasta
Ingredients
- 200g ‘00’ pasta flour
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- Pinch of salt
- Water
Method
Place the flour on your work surface & make a well in the centre. Add the salt, egg & egg yolk & add a little water. Mix together to form a dough & knead for a few minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap & chill for half an hour. Cut the dough into 2 pieces & flatten it with your hands. Dust with flour & using a pasta machine roll out until smooth, beginning on the widest notch progressing down to the finest notch. As the pasta sheets increase in length you will need to cut the lengths to make them more manageable. Use enough flour on the pasta so that it does not stick as you roll it out.
