Ingredients

INGREDIENTS:

1 kilo whole wheat flour

3 – 4 eggs (I used three)

2/3 cup of milk

½ teaspoon salt

For boiling

I spoonful olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

For serving

Dried myzithra cheese

Vegetable shortening

Directions

In the mixer bowl put 2/3 of flour as well as salt and eggs and start mixing. Add milk gradually, until the dough is ready. If the quantity of milk is more than needed just add some of the remaining flour until the dough does not stick on to your hands. Cover with a clean kitchen napkin and let it rest for half an hour.

Take small pieces of dough and roll it out on the pasta machine. I have rolled it on the attachment of my electric mixer gradually from number 1, to 5 and then number 8, making sure to add some flour on the rolled out dough. Then it will have to be rolled out again on the other attachment for linguine and that I made on my other pasta machine. Once the shredded pasta comes out you must dredge it in flour so that they will not stick together. Place on a clean table cloth and cook immediately, otherwise if stored you will have to leave it for a few days to dry. If you have a manual pasta machine roll the dough from 1 to 3 and then 5.

Boil water and add olive oil and salt. Put the pasta in and stir occasionally as they keep floating. After ten minutes drain and serve in a big platter on in individual plates. Grate myzithra on top and in a small sauce pan heat vegetable shortening. It should really be hot. Pour on top of the cheese. A spoonful is enough for each serving.
