EGGLESS PASTA

Steps:

• Make a mound on the counter with the flour and create a well in the center.
• Add the salt, and slowly start slowly pouring in the water, mixing with your fingers between each addition. (You know you have added enough water when you can bring the flour together in a ball.)
• Begin to knead the dough until it is smooth. (At this point the dough should resemble stiff bread dough.)
• Wrap in plastic and let sit 20 minutes before rolling.
• To roll, take a 6 inch ball of dough and place on a lightly floured surface.
• Begin to roll into a flat disc, and roll from front to back, turning the dough clockwise about 1/4 turn after every few rolls of the pin.
• Once the dough is stretched enough to roll around the pin, begin by rolling the dough towards you wrapping it around the pin as you go.
• Keep the dough well floured to prevent sticking.
• Once the dough is rolled to a thickness of about 1/8 of an inch it is ready to cut.
• Ensure the surface of the dough is lightly floured, and start to roll it up into a tube.
• You can either cut it into fettuccine or into triangular pieces.
• Place on a floured baking sheet and let dry until you are ready to use it.
• To cut into triangular pieces, start cutting at an angle, about 1/2 inch wide pieces, starting at the center of the tube end.
• Continue to cut until complete, and dry as described for the other pasta.
• To complete the pasta, cook in boiling salted water until al dente.
• Top with your favorite sauce and serve piping hot.

EGGLESS PASTA, EGGLESS PASTA DOUGH RECIPE

Steps:

• Take water, oil, salt in the container. Add all purpose flour and semolina to it.
• Process in the bread machine to get a non sticky dough.
• If you want to knead with your hands:
• Over a clean counter top, mix flour, semolina and salt well.
• Form a well (dent) in the middle. Add water little by little to form a mass.
• Knead well and add water as needed.
• Depending on the humidity in your place, the water needed may be different.
• Knead well for 5 mins giving good pressure, to bring out the gluten effect.
• Keep aside cling wrapped for 15 mins and knead again for 5 mins to get smooth dough.
• If it is sticky, you can sprinkle more flour.
• Now divide the dough to two. Keep one portion covered.
• Dust the counter top and roll out to long sheet. Again dust both sides and run through the pasta machine.
• Thickness setting from 1 (or lowest/ widest available), run through several times to get a smooth looking sheet of pasta.
• Next, move on to thickness setting 2 or 3 and feed the pasta sheet.
• Each time, use dusting flour to ensure the sheet is not sticky.
• Triple fold the sheet and insert through the narrow side, if it becomes too broad.
• Don't forget to dust the sheet.
• Refer your pasta machine manual for see the thickness you have to set for the pasta shape you are making.
• Accordingly, change the setting to 4-5 and work on the sheet as above.
• If too long, you can cut into two. Also if it gets too broad for the machine, cut the sides.
• Keep the sheets ready and fit the pasta attachment you want to make.
• Run through it to get the pasta - spaghetti, tagliatelle or fettucine.
• You can also use it for making lasagne and ravioli.
• As you collect the fresh batch, each time, generously dust with flour and loosen it up with finger tips gently.
• Divide a handful and keep it in the counter top until use.
• If you want to store, you can leave it as such for drying.
• Either hang in stand or as such over counter top.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add warm water and stir to make a stiff dough. Increase water if dough seems too dry.
• Pat the dough into a ball and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 10 to 15 minutes. Cover. Let dough rest for 20 minutes.
• Roll out dough using rolling pin or pasta machine. Work with a 1/4 of the dough at one time. Keep the rest covered, to prevent from drying out. Roll by hand to 1/16 of an inch thick. By machine, stop at the third to last setting.
• Cut pasta into desired shapes.
• Cook fresh noodles in boiling salted water for 3 to 5 minutes. Drain.

HOMEMADE PASTA DOUGH

Steps:

• On a clean work surface or in a large bowl, combine both flours and 1 teaspoon salt. Make a well in center; add 1 cup warm water and oil. Using a fork and whisking outward from the center of well, gradually incorporate flour mixture into liquid until a ragged dough forms.
• Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead until dough is smooth and springs back when pressed with a finger, 8 to 10 minutes. While kneading, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if dough feels too dry; or add more "00" flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if dough feels too sticky.
• Pat dough into an approximately 1-inch-thick square; tightly wrap in plastic and let stand at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours before using.
