Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cup all purpose or 00 flour
  • 1 ½ cup semolina flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 eggs
  • ¼ cup water or more, if needed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil optional

Instructions
 

  • In a stand mixer, mix all purpose flour, semolina flour, and salt. Then, add eggs and water. Add olive oil if desired. With a dough hook on low speed, knead for 5-10 minutes on low speed or until the dough is smooth. If the dough feels dry, add a tablespoon of water at a time.
  • Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
  • On a floured surface, cut the dough into 8 pieces. Take a portion and flatten it by hand. Using a pasta roller, pass it through the #2 setting.
  • Fold the dough into thirds and pass it through #2 again. Then, feed it through settings #3 and #4 once and twice on #5. Generously dust with flour and repeat with remaining dough.
  • Switch to the fettuccini cutter or your favorite noodle shape and on setting #2, pass the pasta sheets through to cut the the noodles. Repeat with remaining dough. Dust with more flour as needed.

Notes

  • If you only use 00 or all purpose flour, knead the dough for 5 minutes. Then, only add water 1 tb at a time if needed. 
  • This recipe can be used for any pasta shape.
  • Cover with a towel or plastic wrap to prevent the pasta from drying out while you're rolling and cutting.
  • Refrigerate pasta in an airtight container for up to 3 days. 
  • Freeze fresh pasta noodles for up to a month and cook directly from the freezer.
  • Cook pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. The fettuccini took about 4 minutes.
