To make using a pasta maker

  • Combine ingredients, in the order listed, in the pasta maker.
  • Pick your pasta type to extrude as this method can be used for generally any.
  • As the pastra extrudes, lightly coat it with a small amount of flour to prevent sticking.
  • Use the pasta right away or lay each piece out with space between to dry for at least 24 hours.

To make by hand

  • Knead the ingredients together in a large bowl until they come together and have a smooth consistency.
  • Lay the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it out, either with a rolling pin or pasta roller, to the desired thickness for the pasta you would like.
  • Using a pizza cutter or pastry dough cutter, cut the dough into the desired pasta, lasagna or ravioli shape.
  • Use immediately or lay out to dry for at least 24 hours.
