Pasta recipe suggestion for 6 persons.

Ingredients: 500 g (~ 1 lb) soft wheat
flour (type 405) and 5 eggs; the 5 eggs
can also be replaced by a glass of water.
To keep noodles "al dente", 250 g of
soft wheat flour (type 405) must be
mixed with 250 g hard wheat flour
(type 1050).
Do not salt!
• Put the flour in a bowl and the eggs in
the centre (Fig.
a fork and work into the flour well.
Do not use eggs directly from the
refrigerator! Let the eggs warm to
room temperature first.
• Then knead the resulting dough
(Fig. ) well with your hands until
a uniform mass is achieved.
If the dough is dry, some water must
be added. If the dough is too soft,
you can firm it up with some flour.
A good dough should never stick to
your hands.
• Take the dough out of the bowl and
lay it on a lightly floured table surface
(Fig. ). If necessary, knead the dough
again somewhat.
• Then cut the dough into small pieces
