Make fresh egg pasta

draft · verifying asked 185 ways distilled today
  1. 1

    One egg per hundred grams of flour.

    The classic ratio. A well in the flour, eggs in the middle, fork spiralling outward.

  2. 2

    Knead ten real minutes.

    Until smooth and springy: a poked finger mark bounces back. This is where the silk comes from.

  3. 3

    Rest it wrapped, half an hour.

    The gluten relaxes. Unrested dough fights the rolling pin and wins.

  4. 4

    Roll thin in stages.

    Halve, flatten, roll from the centre, rotating. Thin enough to read a headline through.

  5. 5

    Flour, roll loosely, and cut.

    Dust well, roll into a flat cigar, slice into ribbons, unfurl. Cook in three minutes in loud boiling water.

#1 becomes the Core. This atoma is young: submit a better distillation and take the seat.

No gear needed. Your pot, a timer and ice are enough. That is the point.
