Recipes in this Video
Ingredients
- ●2 cups all-purpose flour
- ●3 large eggs
- ●1/2 tsp salt
- ●1 tbsp olive oil
- ●1/4 cup water (if needed)
Instructions
- 1On a clean surface, make a mound with the flour and create a well in the center.
- 2Add the eggs, salt, and olive oil into the well.
- 3Using a fork, beat the eggs gently, gradually incorporating the flour from the edges of the well.
- 4Once the mixture is too thick to mix with a fork, use your hands to knead the dough until smooth, about 8-10 minutes.
- 5If the dough is too dry, add water a tablespoon at a time until it comes together.
- 6Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
- 7After resting, roll out the dough into thin sheets using a pasta machine or a rolling pin.
- 8Cut the sheets into squares, about 2 inches by 2 inches.
- 9To shape the garganelli, take a square, roll it around a thin dowel or a pencil, and press the edges to seal.
- 10Place the shaped garganelli on a floured surface and let them dry for about 15-20 minutes before cooking.
