 Method

• Place your Flour in a large Bowl
• Make a hole in the flour and add the Eggs and Salt.
• Now knead the Eggs into the flour until all the flour is used up.

• Let it rest for at least an hour covered in cling film.
• Then roll out the pasta by hand.

You can carry on doing it by hand but it's much easier with a hand pasta rolling machine Here's the one that Pam recommends:

• Run it through the machine at the widest setting

• Then progressively thinner settings.

• Next run it through the cutter of your choice - in this case spaghetti.

You can let it hang from any kind of rail until you're ready to cook it.

Spaghetti only takes about a minute in plenty of boiling water.

It goes really well with our Carbonara Recipe.and Aglio Olio

Why not try it with our own Bolognese Sauce.

Or the Great Arrabiata Sauce.
