Creating the perfect pasta is both an art and a science. It requires patience, skill, and an understanding of the ingredients and techniques that transform simple flour and eggs into something truly extraordinary.

The foundation of great pasta starts with quality ingredients. We use only the finest Italian 00 flour, fresh eggs from local farms, and a touch of olive oil for richness. The ratio of ingredients matters, but so does the technique of mixing and kneading.

The Ingredients

• 500g Italian 00 flour
• 4 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Pinch of salt

The Technique

Start by creating a well with the flour on a clean surface. Crack the eggs into the center and add the olive oil and salt. Using a fork, gradually incorporate the flour into the eggs until a shaggy dough forms.

Then, knead the dough for at least 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. The dough should spring back when you press it with your finger. Wrap it in plastic and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before rolling.
