pasta dough

Directions

1. Mix flour and salt into a bowl. Create a well and pour in oil and eggs. Beat with fork and slowly work in surrounding flour.
2. Place some additional flour into your hands, and begin mixing it together in the bowl. Once it is cohesive, pour out onto a lightly floured surface.
3. Flour your hands, and knead into a dough for 6-10 minutes. Do not over-knead.
4. Cover with plastic wrap and leave to rest at room temp for 30-60 minutes.
5. Split into 4 portions and roll to desired size.

Notes

Basic pasta dough. Lots of room for variation, but this is a good starting point for spaghetti, linguini, ravioli, etc. Helpful to have a pasta machine to roll it out afterwards. Measure the flour with a kitchen scale; you’ll thank yourself.
