Few things give great satisfaction than home-made egg pasta, served with a good sauce.
300g flour
3 eggs
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
Sift the flour and arrange on a mound on work surface.
Add the eggs, oil and salt and beat these three ingredients with a fork, incorporating the flour gradually until it completely covers the inside. Knead the dough vigorously, pulling.
Form a loaf wrap in plastic wrap to let it rest for at least 1 hour.
Now you can prepare the dough in the shape of your choice.
Measures:
To get a good mix, ensure all the ingredients are at room temperature.
Ideas and options:
Depending on the type of pasta that you want to prepare you can use other types of flour. For fettuccine noodles you can add egg yolks.
To roll out the dough for your homemade pasta you can use a simple rolling pin or special machines.
