Basic Pasta
Yield: 1 lb.
2 cups Flour
3 large Eggs
2 tsp. Olive Oil
pinch Salt
Combine the flour and salt. Make a mound of flour on
your counter and make a well in the middle so it looks like a volcano.
In a bowl beat together the oil and eggs and pour them into the well.
Start working the eggs and flour together by mixing from the inside of
the well out. Continue mixing until all of the flour is incorporated.
Once the pasta is completely mixed cover with a towel and let rest for
30 minutes. Flour your work surface and cut the dough into thirds. Roll
the pasta out to the desired thickness. A pasta machine works best but
a rolling pin will work in a pinch. Cut your rolled pasta into the
desired shape and sprinkle with flour to prevent sticking. Either
refrigerate or cook for 3-4 minutes in boiling salted water and serve.
