Pasta Dough
Seasonal Sauce
Method
Pasta Dough Preparation
Make the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center and crack the eggs into the well. Add the olive oil.
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.
Roll Out the Dough
After resting, divide the dough into quarters. Roll out each piece using a pasta machine or rolling pin to your desired thickness. Cut into your preferred pasta shape.
Seasonal Sauce Preparation
Cook the Sauce
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add Tomatoes
Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook until the tomatoes soften and release their juices, about 5-7 minutes.
Season the Sauce
Stir in the chopped fresh basil, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Simmer for an additional 2 minutes.
Cooking the Pasta
Boil the Pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fresh pasta and cook for 2-4 minutes or until al dente.
Combine Pasta and Sauce
Drain the pasta, reserving a bit of pasta water. Add the pasta to the skillet with the sauce and toss to combine. If needed, add reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce.
Serve
Plate the pasta, garnish with grated Parmesan cheese, and enjoy your house-made pasta with seasonal sauce!
