Pasta Dough

Step 1

Whisk salt into flour.

Step 2

Dump flour and salt onto counter so it falls into a pile. Make a well in the centre that will hold the eggs.

Using a fork start incorporating bits of the flour from around the well into the eggs.  Continue until the mixture becomes too thick to mix with a fork.

Once the dough comes together form it into a ball and knead it for 10 minutes.

The dough will feel smooth and elastic once it's kneaded properly.
