Homemade Pasta Dough
This homemade pasta dough is going to be your go-to whenever you’re craving freshly made pasta! It’s super simple and super delicious.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a large bowl or on a cutting board/countertop, place flour in a mound. Make a well in the center of the flour and crack your eggs into the well.
- Add your salt and olive oil on top of the eggs, and then begin to whisk the eggs gently, not yet incorporating the flour.
- Slowly start pulling the flour into the beaten eggs as you whisk, eventually using your hands to fully incorporate all the flour and work into a dough.
- Knead for about 10 minutes until dough is elastic and smooth. If it is too dry, add a small amount of water with your fingertips until the dough feels smooth, not rough. If it's too wet, do the same with flour. The dough should bounce back when you poke it with your finger gently.
- Form the dough into a ball and wrap it tightly in plastic wrap. Let it rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
- After resting, divide, roll out, and cut it however you'd like!
