This is a lovely, eggy pasta dough that my Italian grandmother used to make. You can roll this paper thin or leave it thicker. In any case, it's delicious and very easy.
Ingredients
- 4 cups all purpose flour shopping list
- 1 teaspoon salt shopping list
- 1 whole egg shopping list
- 3 additional egg yolks shopping list
- 1/2 cup water shopping list
- 3 tablespoons butter, room temperature shopping list
- NOTE: You can exchange some or all of the flour for semolina flour if you'd like.) shopping list
How to make it
- Mix dry ingredients in the bowl of your stand mixer. Reserve about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of flour.
- Warm water to about 110 degrees. Cut butter into small pieces and melt in the warm water.
- Add eggs and yolks to dry ingredients and beat using flat blade attachment.
- Add water and butter and continue to beat until dough comes together.
- Change attachments and using the dough hook, knead dough until it is soft and comes together in a smooth ball. This takes about five minutes, more or less.
- If dough seems dry, add more warm water. If it seems too wet, add reserved flour about a tablespoon at a time.
- Let the dough rest for 30 to 45 minutes.
- At this point, roll out the dough or use your pasta maker to shape the dough into the size and shape you want.
- After dough is shaped, use immediately or let it dry in a single layer for several hours or overnight. Once it’s dried, you can refrigerate it for a few days or freeze.
