HOW TO PREPARE THE MIXTURE
Ingredients (Serves 6 people): 500gr soft wheat flour and 5 eggs (instead of 5
eggs you can use a glass of natural mineral water). For “al dente” pasta, mix
250gr of soft wheat flour with 250gr of durum wheat flour. Do not add any salt!
Execution: Pour the flour in to a bowl and the eggs in to the middle of the flour
(fig.2). Mix the eggs with a fork until they are completely blended with the flour.
Knead the mixture with your hands (fig.3) until it is completely homogenous and
consistent. If the mixture is too dry add some water, if it is too soft add some
flour. A good mixture should never stick to your fingers. Remove the mixture
from the bowl and place it on to a lightly floured table (fig.4). If necessary,
continue to knead the mixture and cut it in to small pieces (fig.5).
Tip: do not use eggs straight from the fridge.
HOW TO PREPARE THE MACHINE FOR USE
1. Place the machine on the kitchen table
2. Fix the machine on the table with the clamp (1) provided (fig.1)
3. Insert the handle (4) into the roller hole (2).
HOW TO PREPARE THE MACHINE FOR USE
1. Set the machine regulator (3) to position 1, pulling it outwards and turning it so
that the two smooth rollers are completely open (approx. 3mm) (fig.6). Pass a
piece of mixture through the machine turning the handle (4) (fig.7).
2. Repeat this operation 5-6 times, folding the dough over and adding some flour
to the middle if necessary (fig.8).
3. When the dough has taken a regular shape, pass it through the rollers once
only with the regulator (3) set on number 2 (approx.0.2mm) (fig.9).
4. Cut the dough crossways with a knife in pieces approximately 25cm long.
