Homemade pasta

A couple of days a go I just celebrate my 41th birthday. :)

When my husband ask me to give him some clues as to what to buy me I didn't hesitate and asked for a pasta machine...

I got a wonderful pasta machine with an extra tool to make ravioli. Uau! 

So today I am making pasta for the first time in my life.

This recipe falls in the category of simple and fast, just the way I like it.

You'll need 1 3/4 cup of flour and 3 eggs. That's it!

Knead the dough with your fingees for 10 minutes and let it rest for 15 minutes.

Cut the dough and pass it through the machine. You'll need to do this several time, adjusting the ma hine, each time. I did it 5 times.

Then it's time to make our tagliatelle!

You have to let it dry for an hour to use right away. The little ones must not touch each other or they will stick to one another. 

If you want to store it, you have to let it dry for 24 hours. Then just store it in a zip lock bag. 

Tagliatelle and spaghetti...

Enjoy!
