HOMEMADE SPINACH PASTA DOUGH
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Squeeze as much water as possible from the chopped spinach with your hands or by pressing with a wooden spoon in a colander.
- In a blender or food processor , combine the spinach and eggs.
- Puree until the mixture is dark green and smooth, with few or no visible chunks of spinach showing.
- In a bowl, combine the flour and salt, stirring with a fork or a whisk to combine.
- On a large, lightly floured work surface (like a countertop covered with a silicone pastry mat), pour the flour mixture into a mound and make a well in the center.
- Pour the spinach-egg mixture into the well.
- Using a fork, stir the spinach mixture in a circular motion, gradually incorporating more and more flour.
- As the mixture turns chunky, begin to knead it, incorporating enough flour to make a stiff dough. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, adding more flour until the dough is smooth and slightly tacky but not sticky.
- Set aside, covered with plastic wrap, for about 20 minutes.
- Assemble your pasta maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Divide the dough into 4 to 6 equal sections with a knife or a dough cutter.
- Cover all of the pieces-except the one you're working with-with a clean dishtowel or plastic wrap.
- Form the piece of dough into a flat rectangle with your hands or a rolling pin to prepare it to be fed into the pasta maker.
- Beginning with one of the shorter sides of the rectangle, feed the pasta through the pasta maker on the first (widest) setting.
- Then fold it in thirds (like a business letter).
- Feed it through the pasta rollers again.
- Repeat the folding and rolling steps several times on the widest setting, before rolling pasta at increasingly smaller settings until it reaches the desired thinness.
- Use the sheets of pasta as-is for lasagna, form into ravioli, or cut into noodles using a pasta machine attachment.

UNIQUE SPINACH NOODLES
These green spinach noodles have a very interesting texture and flavor--but they taste better than store-bought noodles because they're fresh. Use in soups, or serve alone; they are great either way. This is an easy recipe, and you'll get lots of compliments because you made them yourself.

Steps:
- Start boiling a large pot of water.
- NOTES: a) If using frozen spinach, skip steps 3-5; b) if omitting the spinach, use 1 1/4 cups of flour.
- Heat a skillet to medium heat, and add spinach; don't use cooking spray or oil.
- Cook spinach for about 30 seconds, stirring continuously. Spinach should turn a bright green color.
- Plunge spinach immediately into an ice water bath to stop the cooking process.
- When spinach has cooled down to lukewarm temperature, squeeze out the excess moisture using a cheesecloth.
- Add spinach, olive oil, eggs, and salt to food processor and run until fully blended.
- Add flour to food processor and run until blended. If the mixture is still sticky, add flour.
- Remove dough from food processor. Roll dough into a ball and wrap in plastic wrap. Allow to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
- Transfer dough to a work surface that's generously dusted with flour. Cut dough into 4 pieces.
- If using a pasta maker, roll each piece out with a rolling pin until it's about 1/4" thick. If not using a pasta maker, roll until thin and hand-cut as desired.
- Shape dough into rectangles and run through pasta maker, starting with the widest setting. If the dough sticks in the rollers, dust the dough and the rollers with flour.
- Continue rolling dough through the rollers, gradually reducing the setting to flatten it as desired. NOTE: spinach pasta may need to be 1 setting wider than you normally want because of the stickiness of the dough.
- Cut pasta into shapes using the appropriate attachment.
- Lower pasta into water (don't drop it) and boil for a few minutes. Don't crowd the pot with pasta, as this can cause pasta to stick together.
- NOTE: Don't dump the whole pot of cooked pasta into a strainer the way you might with dry, boxed pasta. If transferring to a strainer, don't rinse with water.
- Using tongs or a spider skimmer, remove pasta from the water and transfer to a different container. Doing it this way will help the pasta keep its shape, and allow you to use hot water for the remainder of the boil.

Steps:
- Combine water and ice in a bowl. Preheat a skillet over medium heat; add spinach. Cook, stirring continuously, until spinach turns bright green, about 30 seconds. Plunge into ice water bath; remove when spinach is lukewarm. Squeeze out excess moisture with cheese cloth.
- Combine spinach, eggs, olive oil, and salt in a food processor; blend until smooth. Add flour; blend until dough no longer sticks to the blades, adding flour as needed.
- Roll dough into a ball; wrap in plastic wrap. Rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
- Remove plastic wrap from dough. Transfer to a work surface generously dusted with flour; cut dough into 4 pieces with a sharp knife. Roll out dough with a rolling pin to 1/4-inch thickness; shape into rectangles.
- Dust pasta maker rollers with flour. Run the dough rectangles through a pasta maker on the widest setting. Repeat rolling dough through rollers, gradually reducing the setting to desired thickness. Change pasta maker's attachment to preferred noodle shape; cut pasta with pasta maker.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Lower pasta gently into water; use a spoon to keep noodles from sticking together. Cook until pasta is firm but soft, 3 to 6 minutes. Remove from the water with tongs; transfer to a bowl.

- Blanch the spinach in a large pot of boiling salted water. Shock the spinach in cold water and drain.
- Puree the spinach in a food processor with the eggs and olive oil. Add the flour and salt. and mix until combined. Run the food processor until the dough forms. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for a couple minutes until the dough is smooth. Form the dough into a round disk and cover with plastic wrap. Allow the dough to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes or refrigerate overnight. (If the dough is refrigerated, make sure to let it come to room temperature before rolling out the pasta.)
- Divide the pasta dough into 4 pieces keeping them covered. Working with one piece of dough at a time, flatten slightly and feed through the smooth rollers of a pasta machine starting at the widest setting. Fold the pasta sheet in half each time it is fed through at a narrower setting until the pasta sheet is very thin but does not tear. Place the pasta sheets on a floured work surface to dry for 10 minutes. (Note: If you do not have a pasta machine, you can roll out the sheets of pasta with a rolling pin on a floured work surface.)
- Cut the pasta sheets into 12-inch lengths. Sprinkle the sheets with flour and roll them up loosely. Using a knife or pizza cutter, trim the rough edges and cut into 1/4-inch wide strips. Unroll and place the strips on a floured sheet pan. Repeat with the remaining dough.
