Pasta Dough

bb

Err on the side of having the dough feel too dry while kneading; add just enough water to hold the dough together.

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • AP flour

Instructions

1

Weigh the egg and two yolks on a kitchen scale. Multiply their total weight by 1.5625. This is the mass of flour to use.

2

Beat the eggs. Make a well in the flour and add the eggs and salt. Incorporate the flour into the egg mixture. Knead for about 15 minutes, adding as little cold water as possible.

3

Shape into discs, cover in clingfilm, and let rest in refrigerator for 1 hour.

4

Remove from refrigerator and shape.
