Hand Made Fettuccine Pasta

Handmade Fettuccine Pasta is easy to make and the reaction is always, “This is SOOO much better than store-bought pasta.”

Ingredients

2 Cups of Semolina Flour
2 Cups of All Purpose Flour
1 Teaspoon of Salt
6 Large Eggs
1 Tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Note: If Semolina flour is not available in your area, you may substitute (1) cups of all purpose flour and (1) cup of Swans Down cake flour in place of (2) cups of Semolina flour.

Tip: This task become very simple with a KitchenAid Mixer and the added Pasta Roller and Cuter Set.

Combine ALL ingredients into your mixer. Mix for 6 minutes at a low speed (Speed 2)
Knead by hand for 2 minutes.
Wrap in plastic cellophane wrap and allow to rest for 30 minutes.
Cut ball into 4 peices
Roll into thin strips with a rolling pin
Roll through mechanical roller in the following progressions: Settings 1, 2, 3 & 4.
Cut into Fettuccine or any other past shape desired.
Cook as you would any other pasta in boiling water with a small amount of salt and olive oil to prevent sticking. Remember that since the pasta is fresh it will cook in about half the time as dried pasta.
Top with your favorite sauce. Our family loves the simplicity of butter and Parmesan cheese.
