Ingredients : The golden rule is 100g of flour to 1 large egg per person. Some recipes add a drizzle of olive oil or a pinch of salt.
Fresh Pasta
Place flour on a board, make a large crater, add eggs, and gradually mix from the inside out to avoid breaking the wall.
Knead the dough vigorously for at least 10 minutes until it is smooth, elastic, and not sticky.
Resting is crucial. Cover the dough and let it sit for at least 30 minutes at room temperature to allow the gluten to relax.
Use a pasta machine (or long wooden rolling pin) to roll the dough into sheets, starting at the widest setting and moving to thinner settings.
Aim for a "scant" 1/16 inch (1.5-2mm) thick, ensuring the dough is thin enough that it would flutter like paper if you waved it
You should be able to faintly see the silhouette of your hand behind the sheet.
Cut, press and mold into desired shape.
Lightly flour the cut pasta and let it rest for 15-30 minutes before cooking for only 2-3 minutes in boiling salted water.
