Italian Pasta Recipes - Thick Ribbon Pasta (Pappardelle) Recipe

Ingredients                     

  • 450 g/1Ib/4 cups plain (all-purpose) flour

  • 5 eggs, beaten

  • 2.5 ml/1/2 tsp salt

  • Water


Method:

  1. Put the flour in a mound on a pastry board and make a well in the centre. Break the eggs into the well and add a little water. Pour over the salt.

  2. Fold the flour over the eggs and water gently and keep turning it with the fingers until the liquid is absorbed, adding a little more water if the pastry is too dry.

  3. The pastry should have a smooth consistency. Knead well with floured hands for 10 minutes. Roll into a large square. Fold up and roll out again.

  4. Cover and leave to rest for 30 minutes. Repeat this process twice more. Roll the pastry again thinly and allow to dry out for 30 minutes.

  5. Cut into 2 cm/3/4 in wide ribbons and dry over a cloth on the back of a chair. Store in airtight containers in the fridge and use within 3-4 days.

  6. Cook in plenty of boiling, salted water for 3-5 minutes, depending on thickness, until just tender but still with some texture. Drain and use as required.
