Make the Dough
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Create a well in the center, add the eggs and olive oil. Using a fork, beat the eggs and gradually incorporate the flour until the dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.
