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.

History of Fettuccine Noodles

This was very easy to put together since we had made the noodles earlier this week. Should only take a few minutes to through together.

Fettuccine Alfredo

Sauce


Melt 1 stick of butter with 1 cup of half and half or heavy cream. Mix well and wait for the butter to melt. After everything is melted add 2 Cups of grated Parmesan.  Don't add salt or pepper until you taste it because the Parmesan is very salty.

 

Add noodles to sauce and toss.  Heat through and season as needed with salt and pepper after combined.  Shred Parmesan Cheese over the top and serve.
