Step 1
Put the
All-Purpose Flour (95 g)
in a bowl. Make a crater in the center of the flour and crack the
Egg (1)
into it.
Step 2
Stir with a fork then mix with your hands.
Step 3
Keep mixing until you develop a stiff dough that is quite dry. The dryness makes it easier to roll out and keeps the noodles from sticking together when you cook them.
Step 4
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl covered with a moist towel or plastic wrap for 1 or 2 hours.
Step 5
Tear or slice the dough into manageable pieces—usually as many as the number of people you're feeding. Dust your countertop or cutting board heavily with flour, then use a rolling pin to make the dough as thin as you can.
Step 6
Slice into whatever size of noodles you like.
Step 7
Boil in heavily salted water. Fresh pasta cooks in as little as 30 seconds if the noodles are thin. It's ready when it changes color and starts to float.
