Pappardelle
Serves 8
Directions
- 1Mound the flour and semolina together on a clean work surface and make a well in the center.
- 2Add the egg yolks, olive oil, and water into the well.
- 3Using a fork, gradually whisk the yolks, oil, and water together, then slowly draw in flour from the inner edge of the well until a shaggy dough forms.
- 4Bring the dough together with your hands and knead until smooth and elastic.
- 5Wrap the dough in cling film and rest at room temperature.
- 6Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces, keeping unused portions wrapped.
- 7Flatten one piece and pass it through the pasta machine, starting at the widest setting and working down a notch at a time, folding in between the first couple of passes to even out the texture.
- 8Roll to about setting 5 to 6 on the Atlas 150.
- 9Lightly dust the sheet with flour, fold loosely, and cut into ribbons roughly 1.5 to 2cm wide using a knife or pastry wheel.
- 10Unfurl the cut pappardelle and dust with a little extra flour or semolina, then nest into loose piles until ready to cook.
