Homemade fresh pasta uses a traditional dough typical of Italian cuisine made just of eggs and flour. For this reason it is also called “Egg Pasta”! The soft and elastic dough is rolled out with a rolling pin to obtain a thin sheet, so you can prepare many kinds of fresh pasta such as Tagliatelle, Tagliolini and Pappardelle.

Today we want to share the original recipe of fresh egg pasta, the classic version handed down by Italian families! It is an easy preparation: the dough requires a basic rule, for every 100 grams of flour, 1 egg is added.
The perfect combination is to use Fresh Pasta Flour that gives the right porosity and consistency!

The dough is kneaded quickly by hand and after a short rest at room temperature, it is rolled out with a rolling pin as tradition dictates; but if you have it available, you can use a pasta machine to make quick fresh pasta.
