PASTA DOUGH

 Yummy pasta dough.

So as I said in the last blog here is the pasta recipe ...


Wild garlic pesto pasta


375g Pasta flour ( Plain flour works fine).
9 Egg yolks (Free Range)
1 Whole egg (Free Range)
1 Tbls of cold water
1 Tbls of olive oil
1 pinch of salt

  • Whisk all the wet ingredients together in a bowl.
  • Place flour and salt in a bowl, make a well in the middle.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the well and mix flour from the out side in.
  • Remove from bowl onto a floured surface and kneed until a smooth dough is formed , it should spring back when you pinch it.
  • Wrap in cling film and allow to rest in fridge for twenty minutes.
  • now roll your pasta out very thin folding it back on its self and rolling it out agen if you have a pasta roller this is a lot better but I don't so old school rolling pin it is.

  1. Looks fantastic. I had to make pasta at school once. I'm pretty certain we never ate it though... true story. You might have inspired me to try again with this though :)
