As you get the hang of it, this kit can be supplemented with, for example, more paste rollers (once you learn to pronounce tagliatelle!) or motor to replace the hand crank.
Basic recipe for pasta dough
- 500 grams of flour
- 5 eggs
Mix the eggs and flour on the counter or in a bowl (or household assistant) until well blended. Knead the dough with a hand or dough hook until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes in the fridge.
