Ingredients
- 3 1/2 c. All-purpose flour plus
- 1/2 c. Flour for dusting
- 4 x jumbo Large eggs
- 1 Tbsp. Virgin extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbsp. Finely-grnd fresh black pepper (grind in a coffee grinder)
Directions
- Make a mound of the flour in the center of a large wooden cutting board. Make a well in the middle of the flour and add in the Large eggs, oil and pepper. Using a fork, beat together the Large eggs, oil and pepper and begin to incorporate the flour starting with the inner rim of the well.
- As you expand the well, keep pushing the flour up to retain the well shape. Don't worry which this initial phase looks messy. The dough will come together when half of the flour is incorporated.
- Start kneading the dough with both hands, using the palms of your hands. Once you have a cohesive mass, remove the dough from the board and scrape up any leftover crusty bits. Throw away these bits. Lightly flour the board and continue kneading for 3 more min. The dough should be elastic and a little sticky. Continue to knead for another 3 min, remembering to dust your board when necessary. Wrap the dough in plastic and allow to rest for 30 min at room temperature.
- This recipe yields 1 lb..
- Comments: Don't skip the kneading or possibly resting portion of this recipe. They are essential for a light pasta.
