1
Make the Dough
On a clean surface, mound the flour and create a well in the center. Crack the eggs into the well, add olive oil and salt.
2
Mix the Ingredients
Using a fork, gradually mix the flour into the eggs until a dough begins to form.
3
Knead the Dough
Bring the dough together with your hands and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4
Wrap and Rest
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
5
Roll Out the Dough
After resting, divide the dough into quarters. Roll out each piece using a pasta machine or a rolling pin to your desired thickness.
6
Cut the Pasta
Cut the rolled-out dough into your desired shape (e.g., fettuccine, tagliatelle, or lasagna sheets).
7
Cook the Pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta for 2-4 minutes, depending on thickness.
8
Serve
Drain and serve with your favorite sauce.
