Basic Dough to Make at Home

Place the flour on a surface

Make a hole in the middle

Sprinkle the salt into this hole

Break the eggs over the top

Mix with a fork or your fingers to incorporate the eggs into the flour, add the water and when the dough starts to come together, form a ball with your hands

According to the humidity in the air, you may need to add a little more water

If the dough is too sticky because it has too much water, sprinkle with a little more flour

It will be quite firm

Knead several times, pulling and folding the dough

Form another ball

Cover with a cloth

Let rest for 10 minutes

Dust the surface with wheat flour; knead for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic

If the dough is still slightly sticky, sprinkle with more flour on top

Cover the dough

Let rest for 5 minutes

Divide the dough into 4 balls

Open each one up well

Be careful not to make the dough too thin at the edges

Sprinkle the dough with wheat flour, smooth it out with your hand and roll it like a roulade

Cut into slices of about 1/2 cm in width

Unroll each slice and place on a plate cloth

Let dry for 30 minutes

Use approximately half a kilogram of macaroni
