This document provides instructions for making homemade pasta. It calls for semolina flour, eggs, and optional water to form the dough. The dough is kneaded until smooth, wrapped and refrigerated, and later rolled and cut into sheets or strips. The fresh pasta is then cooked in boiling salted water until al dente.

Homemade Pasta
Makes about 1 ½ pounds fresh
pasta Steps
Step 1: Place the semolina flour in a large
bowl and make a well in the center.
Step 2: Add the whisked eggs to the well and using a
large spoon stir the eggs to gradually add a little of the semolina flour in at a time until the dough comes together. If the dough is dry and feels too crumbly (won’t stay together when pinched), add 1 tablespoon of water at a time.
Step 3: Dump the dough out onto a clean work
surface lightly dusted with flour. The dough may look very clumpy and that’s ok. Keep bringing it together to form a ball. Knead until the ball is super smooth.
Ingredients Step 4: Wrap dough well in plastic wrap and
refrigerate for a couple of hours or even overnight. 2 ½ cups semolina flour Step 5: When you’re ready for the dough take it 4 large eggs, whisked out of the fridge and bring it to room temperature. I like 1-2 tablespoons water, only if needed to cut it into eighths. Then depending on how you are using the noodles you can roll it and cut it accordingly. If you are making flat sheets for lasagna, roll each piece until it’s about 1/4 inch thick. Transfer sheets to a baking sheet pan lined with parchment paper until you are ready to layer and stuff into a lasagna. Or, if you are using these for fettuccine, you can roll each piece out and with a pizza cutter, cut strips of desired thickness. You can hang them on a pasta rack or lay them on a clean, dry towel until you are ready to cook them. You would bring water to boil seasoned with salt and add the noodles, stirring, until they are al dente. Fresh noodles do not take as long to cook as dry noodles to watch them. Usually when they float to the top they are done.
