Learn how to make delicious pasta recipe kitchenaid. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.
Ingredients
Scale
Gathering your ingredients is like setting the stage for a symphony of flavors, each component playing its part to perfection. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1–2 tablespoons water (as needed)
If you’re out of all-purpose flour, feel free to substitute with whole wheat flour for a nuttier flavor. In our household, substitutions are a way of life, thanks to my childhood lessons in flexibility and resourcefulness.
Instructions
- Attach the dough hook to your KitchenAid mixer. In the mixing bowl, combine flour and salt, giving it a quick mix on low speed.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add eggs and olive oil. Start mixing on low speed, gradually increasing to medium until the dough begins to come together.
- If the dough is too dry, add water one tablespoon at a time. Continue mixing for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. This process reminds me of my problem-solving days, ensuring everything balances just right.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature. This allows the gluten to relax, making rolling easier.
- After resting, divide the dough into four equal parts. Roll out each piece using your pasta roller attachment, starting with the widest setting and gradually narrowing it down to your desired thickness.
- Once rolled, cut the pasta into your favorite shapes—be it fettuccine or tagliatelle. Dust with flour to prevent sticking.
- Boil a large pot of salted water, cook the pasta for 2-4 minutes, and serve with your favorite sauce. Watching Eli devour this pasta without bargaining is the ultimate test of success in our household.
