Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 ΒΌ cups Italian-style tipo 00 flour
3 large eggs
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Place flour on a marble or wooden work surface. Make a well in the center and crack in eggs; add salt. Gently beat eggs using a fork, incorporating the surrounding flour, until mixture is runny. Pull remaining flour into the center using a bench scraper, incorporating it until dough forms a ball.
  • Knead dough with your hands by flattening the ball, stretching it, and folding the top towards the center. Turn 45 degrees and repeat until dough is soft and smooth, about 10 minutes.
  • Shape dough into a ball. Place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Roll out the dough with a pasta machine or with a rolling pin and cut into your favorite pasta.
