Instructions
Mix flour and salt together in a large bowl; push into a mound and make a well in the center. Place egg
water
and olive oil into the well; mix together
slowly incorporating the flour mixture until dough is combined.
Turn out dough onto a floured work surface; knead until ball forms
5 to 10 minutes. Divide in half; form into balls. Wrap each dough ball in plastic wrap; rest dough until malleable
about 30 minutes.
Remove plastic wrap. Roll out dough balls; cut into desired shapes with a knife or pasta roller.
Cook's Notes:
The semolina flour makes an incredible difference over all-purpose flour
and shouldn't be substituted.
The dough can be colored red by using tomato paste instead of water
or green by using sautéed blended spinach.
This dough is ideally used in a pasta machine
