Fresh pasta is made by combining flour with eggs, salt and sometimes a little olive oil or water.  Once a dough is formed it is kneaded about 5 to 7 minutes, until smooth and glossy and indents slightly when pressed. This texture phase is important to producing a final product with a silky smooth texture.

Once rolled the dough should rest at least an hour to aid in the cutting down on the elasticity then cut into the noodles or shapes needed.

Fresh pasta takes only a couple minutes to cook and must be carefully watched to avoid over cooking.
