Simple Fresh Pasta

On a clean work surface, make a well in the center of the flour and crack the eggs into it.

Using a fork, gently whisk the eggs, slowly incorporating the flour from the inner walls of the well.

Once the dough becomes too thick to mix with a fork, use your hands or a bench scraper to combine everything into a shaggy dough.

Knead the dough for 7-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Form the dough into a ball, cover with a dish towel or wrap in plastic, and let it rest for 1 hour.

After resting, cut the dough into four equal pieces.

Working with one piece at a time (keeping the others covered), use a rolling pin to roll the dough out into a very thin rectangular sheet.

Lightly flour the sheet of dough. Fold both long sides in to meet at the center.

Slice the folded dough into strips of your desired width to create noodles.

Gently unfold the pasta strands. The fresh pasta is now ready to be cooked.
