HOMEMADE PASTA

EP. 7 - pt 1

Learn how to easily make delicious homemade pasta from special guest home cook Anthony Cusenza.

RECIPE

2cups all-purpose flour (spooned in/not packed)

3 eggs

1 tsp salt

1 Tbs olive oil

Put the flour and salt in the food processor. Pulse a few times to mix the salt with the flour. Add eggs and olive oil. Let the food processor go about 20 seconds. If the dough balls up, that's ok it means it's a little wet. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it's soft. If it's dry and crumbly, that's also ok. In this case, wet your hands before kneading the dough, and it will come together. After kneading for a few minutes, cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temp for at least 30 minutes. After the dough has set, you're ready to prepare it in a number of ways, either using a rolling pin and then cutting the pasta by hand, or using a machine like a pasta rolling machine or a Kitchen-Aid.
