Recipe for fresh pasta (for 4 people)
Ingredients:
300 g. durum wheat semolina
150 ml water
Salt
For egg pasta: we suggest to substitute the water with two eggs.
On a floured surface make a well in the semolina, pour in the center the liquid ingredients (water or eggs) and salt. With a circular movement mix the ingredients together until all the semolina is incorporated to form a thick dough. Now you can start to knead the dough. Fold the dough over on to itself towards you and then press it down away from yourself with the heels of your hands. When the kneaded dough is smooth and solid, shape it into a ball and then cover it with cling film. Leave it to rest in a cool place for about one hour.
Turn the dough on the working surface and roll it out in each direction. Fold the dough into a three level strip and cut according to the desired shape. |

Put the ingredients into the kneading machine adding around about 70% of the water. Knead the ingredients for about 25 minutes, adding the remaining water. At the end of this process, leave the dough to rise making sure it is covered with a cotton cloth, for about 90 minutes. When the dough has risen turn it on a working surface and proceed to shape and weigh it. Leave the shaped dough to rest for about 15 minutes and, just as before, cover with a cotton cloth. Make a slit across the top of the dough. Put in a hot oven (240°) and bake for about one hour.

Cover the bowl and leave the dough to rest for about two hours. |
