Simple Homemade Pasta

Step 1

In a large bowl add the flour, make a well in the middle and add the water and salt, mix with a fork to combine, then move to a flat surface and gently knead for about 3-5 minutes, form into a compact dough ball, if the dough is too dry then add a little more water (1 tablespoon at a time).

Step 2

Cover the dough with a tea towel or wrap in plastic wrap and let rest 30 minutes.

Step 3

Knead the dough a couple of times, then roll it out on a lightly floured flat surface. Roll to about an 1/8 inch thickness, roll up and slice to make fettuccine or thicker or thinner or even into squares to add to soup. Cook in boiling salted water for about 6-7 minutes. Enjoy!
