HOMEMADE PASTA DOUGH
Use 1 cup flour and 1 egg per person (i.e., 8 cups flour, 8 eggs).
For 8 cups flour add a small handful of salt. Make a well in the flour adding eggs and scramble them with flour. Add 2 cups of water gradually until dough is mixed well. It should be on the hard side, not soft. Knead on floured board and cover. When ready to cut pasta, cut dough into manageable balls.
Using one ball, cover remaining with cloth. Roll out dough into a large circle about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Cut into strips about 3 inches wide. Roll these through the flat roller of your spaghetti machine to desired thickness. You may have to cut them in half for a shorter length.Home made pasta recipes?
