Without question, it is the golden-yellow, silky smooth fresh pasta of Emilia-Romagna that says it all when it comes to the fresh pasta traditions of Italy and this is a good basic pasta dough recipe to use.

Ingredients

  • 400 g/14 oz/ cups 00 soft wheat flour (see Cook’s tip)

Method

  1. Measure out the flour and tip it on to the work surface. Make a hollow in the pile of flour with your fist.
  2. Beat the egg lightly in a bowl, just enough to blend the yolk and white together, and pour into the hollow.
  3. Blend the egg and flour together with your fingertips until a lumpy mass has been formed, then pull everything together with your hands.<
