1
Measure out the bread flour and salt, put into a large bowl, and make a well in the middle.
-
2
Put the olive oil and eggs in the well.
-
3
Break down the flour well little by little as you mix.
-
4
The dough will just about come together with the liquid in this.
-
5
Keep kneading it, putting all your weight into it.
-
6
It will come together little by little.
-
7
When the dough is nice and smooth, cover it with a moist but tightly wrung out kitchen towel, wrap in plastic and leave it to rest for an hour or so.
-
8
I use a pasta machine, but you can use a rolling pin and cutting board instead.
-
9
Take the dough out onto a cutting board, roll it out slightly and cut in half.
-
10
If you are using a pasta machine, set the dial to the thickest setting and roll the dough out.
-
11
It will probably tear the first time.
-
12
Fold into thirds and keep rolling the dough through, and it will become smooth.
-
13
The dough will become thinner and thinner as you roll it out.
-
14
In the end it should be about 2 mm thick and about 30 cm long.
-
15
Make 8 pieces like this.
-
16
Cut the dough using the cutting rollers.
-
17
Since the dough has little moisture, the noodles shouldn't stick to each other.
-
18
Dry the pasta out for a bit.
-
19
You can even use a laundry rack.
-
20
In about 15 minutes the surface of the pasta will dry out (I have a low humidity environment because of my stove).
-
21
Divide into 4 portions, place on a flat sieve and leave to dry for another 10 minutes.
-
22
Store in a plastic bag.
-
23
You can freeze it like this.
-
24
There is salt in the dough, so you don't need to add any to the cooking water.
-
25
They should be cooked for around 5 minutes.
