HOMEMADE PASTA RECIPE (VEGAN, EASY)

Steps:

• *Note: Please watch the recipe video for visual instruction! Also, I highly recommend measuring the ingredients in grams rather than cups!

EGGLESS PASTA

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add warm water and stir to make a stiff dough. Increase water if dough seems too dry.
• Pat the dough into a ball and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 10 to 15 minutes. Cover. Let dough rest for 20 minutes.
• Roll out dough using rolling pin or pasta machine. Work with a 1/4 of the dough at one time. Keep the rest covered, to prevent from drying out. Roll by hand to 1/16 of an inch thick. By machine, stop at the third to last setting.
• Cut pasta into desired shapes.
• Cook fresh noodles in boiling salted water for 3 to 5 minutes. Drain.

HOMEMADE PASTA DOUGH

Steps:

• On a clean work surface or in a large bowl, combine both flours and 1 teaspoon salt. Make a well in center; add 1 cup warm water and oil. Using a fork and whisking outward from the center of well, gradually incorporate flour mixture into liquid until a ragged dough forms.
• Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead until dough is smooth and springs back when pressed with a finger, 8 to 10 minutes. While kneading, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if dough feels too dry; or add more "00" flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if dough feels too sticky.
• Pat dough into an approximately 1-inch-thick square; tightly wrap in plastic and let stand at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours before using.

EGGLESS PASTA

Steps:

• Make a mound on the counter with the flour and create a well in the center.
• Add the salt, and slowly start slowly pouring in the water, mixing with your fingers between each addition. (You know you have added enough water when you can bring the flour together in a ball.)
• Begin to knead the dough until it is smooth. (At this point the dough should resemble stiff bread dough.)
• Wrap in plastic and let sit 20 minutes before rolling.
• To roll, take a 6 inch ball of dough and place on a lightly floured surface.
• Begin to roll into a flat disc, and roll from front to back, turning the dough clockwise about 1/4 turn after every few rolls of the pin.
• Once the dough is stretched enough to roll around the pin, begin by rolling the dough towards you wrapping it around the pin as you go.
• Keep the dough well floured to prevent sticking.
• Once the dough is rolled to a thickness of about 1/8 of an inch it is ready to cut.
• Ensure the surface of the dough is lightly floured, and start to roll it up into a tube.
• You can either cut it into fettuccine or into triangular pieces.
• Place on a floured baking sheet and let dry until you are ready to use it.
• To cut into triangular pieces, start cutting at an angle, about 1/2 inch wide pieces, starting at the center of the tube end.
• Continue to cut until complete, and dry as described for the other pasta.
• To complete the pasta, cook in boiling salted water until al dente.
• Top with your favorite sauce and serve piping hot.

THE BEST PASTA DOUGH FOR KITCHENAID MIXER

Steps:

• Add the eggs in the bowl. Using the flat beater, beat the eggs. Switch to the dough hook and throw in the flour, olive oil and salt. Beat for about 3-4 minutes, or until the dough indents when you touch it. If the dough feels too sticky, add flour. If it feels too dry, add water.
• Put the dough in Tupperware or a bowl with cling wrap. Let is rest for at least 1 hour.
• Attach the pasta roller attachment on the kitchen aid mixer. Grab some of the dough and roll into a ball the size of a ping pong ball (this is to know how much you should be using). Keep the rest of the dough in the Tupperware/cling wrap. Flatten the dough with your hand on a floured surface. Turn the pasta attachment on and feed the dough through the pasta roller set to #1. Fold the pasta in half and feed it through the machine again. Set to #2 and feed it through. Pat the dough with flour on both sides and feed through 2 again. Feed through 3, and finally through 4. Switch the pasta roller attachment to the spaghetti or fettuccini attachment. Just like the roller, feed the flattened dough through the new attachment. You can make nests in the pasta or hang the pasta on a pasta drying tree.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil. When there is a rolling boil, add the pasta and boil for 4-5 minutes, or until al dente.

BASIC PASTA DOUGH (NO EGG)

Steps:

• Put flour in large mixing bowl, making a well in the center.
• Add wet ingredients to well and very slowly mix together with a fork, incorporating only a little flour at a time so it mixes smoothly and evenly. Trust me, the more patient you are with this the better it will turn out.
• Continue kneading by hand for about 10 minutes, let rest for a half hour covered with a towel. Repeat a couple times until dough is smooth and silky, and just slightly sticky.
• Shape by hand or with a machine.
• Note: Boiling fresh pasta takes significantly less time than dry pasta. Depending on the shape, cook for 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
