| Yield: | 1 1/4 pounds pasta dough |
Ingredients
- 2 cups cake flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
- 4 large egg yolks, at room temperature
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Place the cake flour, all-purpose flour, egg yolks and salt in a food processor. Pulse to combine. With the machine running, gradually add the oil then 1/3 to 1/2 cup water until the mixture forms a dough (the dough should stick together if pinched between your fingers). If necessary, add additional water, 1 teaspoon at a time if the dough is too dry.
- Place the dough on a lightly floured surface. Gather the dough into a ball and knead until the dough is smooth, 5 to 8 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Cut the dough into quarters and press flat. Run each piece of pasta dough several times through a pasta-rolling machine, adjusting the setting each time, until the pasta is about 1/8 to 1/16-inch thick. Cut the pasta into the desired shape and use as needed.

Reviews
I made this (as Fettuccine) to serve with Chicken Florentine. It was my first time making fresh pasta and it turned out very nice. I just made it in our Ankarsrum mixer instead of the food processor and let it knead the dough most of the way and it worked well. I did add a little too much water at first but after adding more flour the dough was very nice. I used whole wheat flour that was fine-ground. To cook it, I boiled some salt water and cooked the pasta for about 4-6 minutes.
Comes out great every time! My granddaughter had a blast making it with me.
Super easy and delicious, pasta was so tender! We followed directions exactly. Made spaghetti, looking forward to trying this with lasagna.
This recipe is very easy to make and is delicious! My son said it was the best pasta he ever ate…!
This pasta was delicious! I followed the instructions exactly, I had to use half a cup of water for the dough to be perfect but it worked so well. I worked all the ingredients together in my food processor and then proceeded to use my Kenwood stand mixer to knead the dough on minimum speed for 5 minutes. I rested the dough in the fridge for about six hours just because I made it in the morning, so I don’t take as long for dinner. It turned out great and was very easy to roll out.
This dough is very nice! Very easy and very tender. I lasagna for Christmas and it’s the best I have ever eaten. Follow the directions and you won’t go wrong.
Great Recipe easy to follow
This is the very best pasta recipe I have ever made. I have been using it for many years now. I highly recommend it. Great job Giana.
My daughter came home from her study abroad in Italy and she wanted to make fresh pasta. We doubled the recipe for 4 meal size portions and added an extra 1/4 cup of water. Delicious! Easy!
