Ingredients for homemade tagliatelle dough

•400g flour (200g all purpose flour and 200g semola flour)

•4 eggs

Make the pasta dough:

• Put flour into a bowl or onto a flat surface.

• Make a hole in the center of the mound, break one egg at a time into the center.

• Beat eggs using a fork, slowly draw flour into the center of mound, where the beaten egg is.

• Keep adding flour to the egg until possible, then knead with your hands until it’s smooth and homogeneous.

• If the dough is too soft or sticky, add more flour. Alternatively, if the dough is too stiff, add a few drops of warm water.

• Form into a ball and sprinkle with flour. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.

• Spread the dough out onto your surface, which should be lightly floured to avoid sticking.

• Using a rolling pin, begin rolling pasta out from the center, until you reach the ideal thickness of 1mm.

• You can also use a pasta machine, remembering to flour the dough if it is too sticky.

Prepare fresh egg tagliatelle:

• If possible let the pasta sheet rest for 10 minutes to let it dry a little.

• Then cut with a sharp knife into strips about 0.5 cm wide.

• Layer strips on tray sprinkled with more flour to avoid sticking.

• You can also create the tagliatelle using a pasta machine attachment, if available.

Cook fresh tagliatelle and dress

• Fill large soup pot with water and salt. Bring water to boil, add prepared tagliatelle noodles.

• Cook pasta in boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Drain.

• Add tagliatelle to the chosen sauce.

  1. Made this on a grey afternoon at home and for ten minutes the kitchen smelled like a holiday.

  2. Did it by hand the second time as suggested and yes, it is genuinely different. More work, better texture.

  3. I let it rest longer than suggested because I got distracted, and honestly it rolled even better.

  4. I halved the quantity for two people and it worked without any change to the timings.
