Let's Cook at Home

If you are not in the mood for going out this weekend, have you ever thought about making your own pasta at home? Below you can find some tips on how to get started!

To start, we need to make sure we have all of the ingredients on hand. Find the necessary ingredients below:

  • All-purpose flour – This homemade pasta recipe uses regular all-purpose flour and yields chewy, bouncy noodles every time.
  • Eggs – The key ingredient for adding richness and moisture to the dough!
  • Olive oil – Along with the eggs, a splash of olive oil moistens the dough and helps it come together.
  • Salt – Add it to the dough and the pasta water for the best flavor.
