HOW TO MAKE FRESH PASTA FROM SCRATCH

Ingredients
4 x servings

200g 00 pasta flour
2 x eggs

Method
Place flour in a large bowl or clean work surface, make a well in the centre and break in the eggs. With a fork or your hands, gradually mix the flour with the eggs until well amalgamated.

Knead with your hands until you obtain a soft, smooth dough. Form into a ball, wrap in cling film and leave for about 30 minutes or until ready to use.

Divide the pasta into 4 portions and put through a pasta machine starting at the highest setting. Continue to roll the pasta through the machine turning down the settings as you go until you get to number 1 and the dough is almost wafer-thin. If you don’t have a pasta machine, use a rolling pin.

Place the pasta sheet onto a lightly floured work surface and cut your shapes.

Sounds like there are plenty of beautiful places to visit and eat great food in Italy, it's on my wish list.

I love fresh pasta, so I have the Philips pasta maker which I love. Of course, it won't make any shape of pasta, but it does spagetti, spagettini, taglitele, linguini, rigatoni, lasagna sheets, and a few others. I also have that manual machine but I have never used it. Fresh pasta cooks in 4-5 minutes. I also like using durum semolina for my pasta.

200g 00 pasta flour is for 2 servings not 4 servings?
