There’s nothing quite like fresh pasta, and this homemade tagliatelle recipe walks you through step by step on how to make pasta at home without a machine.
On a clean, wooden cutting board, create a well in the middle of the flour and break the eggs into the center. Carefully mix the eggs with a fork as if you were making an omelette.
Once the eggs and flour begin to mix, start working the dough with your hands until the mixture is smooth but firm. Kneading the dough takes a bit of time!
Let dough rest for 20-30 minutes. After 30 minutes, roll out the dough with a rolling pin until extremely thin and as circular as possible. Keep dusting with flour as you roll it out.
When it’s thin enough, sprinkle cornmeal on the cutting board and the dough. Fold up the dough into a flat “burrito” before you begin slicing it with a sharp knife.
