Pasta Ingredients
2
cups
All-purpose flour
2
large
Eggs
1/2
teaspoon
Salt
1-2
tablespoons
Olive oil
as needed
tablespoons
Water
Add gradually to achieve the right dough consistency.
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the eggs, olive oil, and a bit of water.
Use a fork to mix the eggs with the flour, slowly adding more flour until a dough forms. If it’s too dry, add water a teaspoon at a time.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes, until it’s smooth and elastic.
Break the dough into small pieces and roll each into a thin rope, about ¼ inch thick. Cut each rope into 2-inch pieces.
To shape the Gemelli Pasta, twist each piece of dough. This twist is what makes Gemelli unique.
Put the twisted pasta on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let it dry for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
