Directions

1. For this recipe start by making the pasta. Add the flour, eggs, water, and salt to the bowl of the KitchenAid® Stand Mixer. Attach the Flat Beater. Mix on speed two for 30 seconds.
2. Swap out the Flat Beater for the Dough Hook. Mix on speed two for two minutes. The dough should start to pull away from the sides. If not, you may need to add some more water. Only add about a teaspoon at a time, and knead a bit before adding more. The texture of the dough should be leathery and pliable but not sticky or crumbly and dry.
3. A good way to tell if the dough has the right consistency is to pinch a bit of dough between your fingers. The dough should not stick to your fingers and should stay together when pinched. It should not crumble and fall apart. You may need to add flour or water to get the right consistency. Remove the dough from the Stand Mixer and hand knead for two minutes. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it sit for 20 minutes.
