Drying Pasta on a hanger |
Basic Pasta Recipe
(about 2–3 adult servings of pasta, recipe can easily be multiplied by however many servings you need)1 egg
1 cup flour (white, whole wheat, or a mixture)
2 or more Tbsp water
Measure flour into a bowl or on a clean counter, make a well in the center, add eggs, and mix until well incorporated. Add water a couple of tablespoons at a time and knead well until dough reaches a nice elastic consistency. You can add extra herbs or a little olive oil for a different flavor at this time. Let the dough rest at least a half an hour, and then roll and cut into desired shape.
After cutting, you can either bake a pasta dish right away or freeze it for later. Pasta can also be dried and stored in an airtight container for later use. Homemade pasta does not keep well in the fridge (not even overnight), but does freeze beautifully, so you can make multiple batches at a time.
