Draconator Posted 18 hours ago Posted 18 hours ago (edited) Mine is: 2 cups of flower flour (courtesy of @ExiledInIllinois) 3 eggs 1 tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil Healthy amounts of ground Garlic, Italian Seasoning, and Basil. To me, the most important thing to have when making homemade pasta is a great pasta roller. My wife gave me one, imported from Italy, and it is great. (Marcato Atlas Roller 180) Anyone have any different recipes that bring out the flavor? Edited 15 hours ago by Draconator 2 Quote

muppy Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago I buy some high quality dried pastas for variety. But I don't make it. I have a stand mixer with a dough hook. But I'm clueless how to make homemade pasta. I just started making my own home made pizzas from Aldi fresh pizza dough. It is delicious highly recommend I do love to cook though. Quote

Dump the 2 cups of flour on a cutting board or any solid surface that's not dirty. Take the flat end of the cup, and make a divot in the center of the flour. Kinda like the crater of a volcano. Crack the eggs, and put the yolk and whites in the crater. Same with the olive oil and spices. Take a fork and whisk the eggs and stuff, while gently taking some flour in the whisking process. Take off all rings, and begin to kneed the remaining flour in your center mixture. Until you have a ball of dough. (Usually takes me about 10 to 15 minutes). Have some extra flour on hand if the dough is too moist, and a small cup of water to dip your fingers into, if the dough is too floury or dry. Wrap the kneaded dough in plastic wrap, and let it sit and get happy in the fridge for 30 minutes to an hour. Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces. Take the first piece and flatten it with a rolling pin. Then take that piece of dough and roll it through the widest setting of the pasta maker (usually 0). Do that twice, then lower the width by two steps, and run the dough through twice each time. I usually go 0,2,4,6. Then it's thin enough but not too thin to go through the cutting piece to cut the rolled dough to make pasta. Repeat with the other 3 pieces of dough left. 2 1 Quote

My pasta came out like Polish "kluski" if anyone is familiar with those. More "starchy dumpling" than tender pasta. Quote
