Homemade Tagliatelle with Fresh Herbs

02How to make it

Step-by-step

1. 1

   Prepare the Flour

   Place the flour on a clean surface or in a large bowl. Make a well in the center.

2. 2

   Add Eggs and Mix

   Crack the eggs into the well and add the olive oil and salt. Use a fork to beat the eggs gently, gradually incorporating the flour until a dough forms.

3. 3

   Knead the Dough

   Once the dough comes together, knead it by hand for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add a little flour if it feels too sticky.

4. 4

   Rest the Dough

   Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes at room temperature. This relaxes the gluten, making it easier to roll out.

5. 5

   Roll and Cut the Pasta

   Divide the dough into four pieces. Roll each piece out on a floured surface until thin. Cut into strips about 1/4 inch wide to form tagliatelle.

6. 6

   Boil the Pasta

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook for 2-3 minutes until al dente.

7. 7

   Drain and Serve

   Drain the pasta and toss with your favorite sauce. Sprinkle with the fresh herbs before serving.
