For a pasta dough that could be easily rolled out by hand (but still cook up into delicate, springy noodles), we added six extra egg yolks and a couple tablespoons of olive oil. In addition, we incorporated an extended resting period to allow the gluten network to relax and developed a simple, effective rolling technique.

but i have no food processor
Yum, this is awesome!
Your voice is fudge to my ears
Yes! I have 6 egg yolks to do something with and no pasta maker! Do you think the dough could be frozen?
Looks great. What type of flour did you use?
you used a machine… totally bites. i'm looking for old style recipes before the machines came and ruined the cooking experience.
This recipe is free, and calls for a food processor.
So you do have to buy one machine. But, you don't have to buy a machine you don't already own. That's true of everything,, isn't it?
In truth, I can't make this one recipe because I'd have to buy a food processornmachine. To tell the truth, "they" are assuming a certain degree of weath in their audience.

She made it look so easy! I'm not as intimated to try making pasta. I was waiting till I could buy a machine. Now I know how to make it from scratch w/o a machine! Great job ATK! Love your shows and videos! Thank you!
I use my hands to mix the dough. Then I use a wine bottle instead of rolling pin. Then cut
Is it safe for eggs to sit out at room temp that long
Can this pasta be dried and stored?
What are the calories off it all?
About how much pasta will this recipe yield? Thank you!
roll until you can see through fingers, and skips the visual so we can't see how thin it is. but measure the dough with rulers because that's really important.
Lan Lam, I know this has been posted for quite a while now, but only recently reviewed it. I am 66 years old and have never attempted to make homemade pasta. Combining your technique, along with 2-3 others I had seen I got the confidence to give making pasta a try, and used a wooden had roller to roll out the dough and then sliced the noodles. It was delicious and the recipe that you provided gives the noodle the richest flavors. Thank you.
I've tried them all; high gluten flour recipe, semolina flour, a mixture of both, without eggs and with eggs. THIS RECIPE IS THE BEST, HANDS DOWN, MY GO-TO ☆☆☆☆☆
Can I use this method for ravioli?
I love the idea that you used olive oil. Also you used just yolk of the egg brilliant. Here my video it show struggling a little https://youtu.be/z9sxKJTEVMk Thank you for the video.
