Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup semolina flour
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 4 large eggs

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl make a mound of flour with a well in the middle of it. Place the eggs in the well. Using your hands gently mix the eggs into the flour. Continue to mix with your hands until the flour and eggs form a dough.
  • Transfer dough to a well floured surface and kneed for 8 - 10 minutes or until the dough is elastic. Let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes. At this point you can also refrigerate the dough for an hour or so until you are ready to roll it out and cut it.
  • Cut the pasta dough into four equal pieces. If you are using a pasta machine feed it through the pasta roller according to directions until desired thickness. I used the 2 on the kitchen aid pasta attachment. Then use the pasta cutter attachment for whichever pasta shape you would like to make, in my case I chose fettuccine. If you are not using the pasta machine, roll the dough out on a well floured surface until desired thickness and then cut into pasta.
  • After you have rolled and cut your pasta, if it's sticking together sprinkle with a little flour. Now you can dry it, freeze it or cook it immediately. When cooking, cook in salted boiling water for 3 - 4 minutes. Strain and serve with your favorite sauce.

Enjoy!
