Step-by-Step Instructions
- Place 2 cups of all-purpose flour on a clean surface, create a well in the center, add 3 large eggs, a pinch of salt, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Whisk the eggs and incorporate flour until a shaggy dough forms.
- Knead the dough by hand for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic, wrap it in plastic wrap, and rest for at least 30 minutes.
- Dust your work surface and rolling pin with flour, divide the dough into quarters, and roll out each piece to about 1/16 inch thickness.
- Dust the rolled-out dough with flour, and cut it into your preferred shapes using a knife or pasta cutter.
- Boil salted water in a large pot, add the freshly made pasta, and cook for 2-4 minutes until tender and floating.
- Drain the cooked pasta, toss it with your favorite sauce while garnishing with fresh herbs, and serve immediately.
