Instructions

  1. Step 1

    On a clean surface, make a mound with the 2 cups flour and 1/2 tsp salt. Create a well in the center.

  2. Step 2

    Crack the 3 eggs into the well and add the 1 tbsp olive oil. Beat the eggs with a fork, gradually incorporating flour from the sides.

  3. Step 3

    Once a shaggy dough forms, knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic and rest 30 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll each piece through a pasta machine, starting at thickest setting, folding and rolling each setting until thin (about 1/16 inch).

  5. Step 5

    Run the thin sheets through the fettuccine cutter, dusting with flour to prevent sticking. Cook in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes until al dente.
