Homemade Pasta

Instructions

1. 01

   Add the flour and salt to a large bowl or on a clean work surface and mix to combine.

2. 02

   Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and crack the eggs in the well.

3. 03

   Use a fork to beat the eggs and gradually start incorporating flour into the eggs. Keep going with more flour until a dough starts to form. The dough will be sticky at first so just keep adding flour to it.

4. 04

   When you can no longer work the dough with the fork, flour your hands really well and start kneading with your hands for about 5 to 10 minutes or until the dough is smooth and elastic.

5. 05

   Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

6. 06

   Add a bit of flour to a clean work surface. Unwrap the dough and start rolling it with a rolling pin until the dough is anywhere from 1/4 inch thick to paper thin, go as thin as you can.

7. 07

   Using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, start cutting into noodles, make them as wide or thin as you like, just try and make them as uniform as possible.

8. 08

   While finishing up with all the dough, cool the noodles on a noodle drying rack, or spread them and sprinkle a bit of flour over them so they don't stick together.

9. 09

   Boil the noodles in well salted water until tender, about 2 to 3 minutes, then serve with your favorite pasta sauce, butter or cheese.
