Ingredients

6 servings
  1. 4large eggs
  2. 2 cupall purpose flour
  3. 1/2 teaspoonsalt
  4. As neededwater and salt to boil the pasta
  5. As neededflour to dust the pasta
  6. 1 tablespoonextra Virgin olive oil for boiling pasta

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Add the flour to a bowl. Add salt and mix well. Make a crater in the flour and add three eggs.

  2. 2

    Knead the dough for 3 minutes add the final egg and knead 5 minutes let rest 45 minutes covered with plastic.

  3. 3

    Add enough flour to some parchment paper so that the pasta does not stick. We used parchment paper for easy clean up.

  4. 4

    After the pasta has rested so the dough can relax for easy rolling out, cut into four equal pieces. Dust with flour

  5. 5

    Roll it out very thin we don't have a pasta machine so we do it the old-fashioned way. I taught her to use her palms of her hands so her hands wouldn't get rolled under the pin.

  6. 6

    Cut off the edge to square it up. We used a pizza cutter and edge of the rolling pin.

  7. 7

    Cut the next and so on till all is cut.

  8. 8

    We used a chopstick to hang the pasta on.

  9. 9

    Keep the pasta ribbons dusted.

  10. 10

    Boil the water with salt and olive oil. Add the pasta and cook till your desired doneness. Times will vary depending on thickness of pasta. Here is a note this pasta tripled in size after being cooked.

  11. 11

    Serve we had it with spaghetti sauce. I hope you enjoy! We had so much fun making and eating this!!!!!
