Regular Pasta Dough

By Debbie54

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups semolina flour, finest grind
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 4 eggs
• 2 Tbls extra-virgin olive oil

Preparation

Step 1

Place the fours in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Add the salt, eggs, and olive oil. Process until the dough begins to mass on the blade (about 1-2 minutes)

Remove the dough from the processor and press it into a ball. Wrap in plastic and let rest at least 2 hours in the refrigerator before rolling and cutting. (Rolling the dough by hand is extremely tedious; wiht a small pasta machine and cutting attachment, you will save time and produce a much more uniform product.)

Notes: The pasta can be made by hand or in an electric mixer fitted with a dough hoot. For each of these methods, mix the dry ingredients togther first, make a well in the center, add the wet ingredients, and mix them together slowly unti, everything is combined well. Wrap in a plastic.
