Homemade Fettuccine

I decide to try and make homemade pasta and ended up with making Fettuccine. It was work but well worth it and the recipe is easy. The work was rolling out the dough. I found a trick to cutting it so it was easier than I had thought. It tasted really fresh and we used it to make two meals that week. I will post both of them this week.



Homemade Fettuccine

I started making the homemade Fettuccinee by taking 2 cups of flour and making a well with it. I put 3 eggs into the well along with ½ tsp of Salt and stirred it by hand.

When it was mixed I added ½ tsp of Olive oil to the fettuccine recipe, covered it with plastic and put it in the refrigerator for atleast 4 hours.

The fettuccine dough sat for 4 hours I took it out and split it in half so it was easier to roll out.

Once rolled out the fettuccine dough very thin then I rolled up the dough.

I cut the fetuccinne into small pieces off the end and unraveled them. Behold there was the Homemade Fettuccine.

I then boiled Fettuccine for about 5 minutes. You don't want to cook it too much because if you add sauce it will continue to cook and you don't want it mushy.

I drained the Homemade Fettuccine and put it in the refrigerator for the next day when I made an Alfredo sauce and red sauce.
