Pasta noodle Recipies?

[shelbylovesmelby]

Anyone have any good homemade pasta recipies?

I have one for egg noodles, just wondering if there are any other kinds out there as I got a pasta maker for Christmas.

Someone shared this one with me to have a bread machine do the mixing, but I'm sure you could it by hand:

Basic pasta

All ingredients at room temperature (70-80 degrees F)

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup semolina flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablspoon olive oil or vegetable oil
7 ounces water

Measure all ingredients into bread pan. Select Dough setting. Press Start/stop and allowto mix 8-10 minutes and then press Start/Stop to cancel. Remove dough and roll out on lightly floured surface. Roll to 1/8 inch thickness. Dust with flour if dough is sticky. Cut into 1/8 inch strips for narrow noodles or 1/4 inch for medium noodles. Cook noodles in large pot of boiling water for 10-15 minutes. Drain in colander.

No recipes for you. I just use one from Joy of Cooking. Kind of fun, but I do it so infrequently I am very slow at it.

But I want to warn you of a little something I learned about egg noodles. There is a reason to hang them on those little noodle drying dowel sets. I mean a reason other than giving them a thorough airing.

If you lay them out on a floured table to dry out, they may actually suddenly spring up and jump off the table! No kidding. The first time I made egg noodles I had never seen it done and had no one to warn me. I happily went to bed with the noodles drying on the table. When I came to check them the next morning, at least a third of them were on the floor. It's a study in potential energy becoming kinetic (My kid says I think like a chemist in my predilections to always follow the energy, but I am not a chemist.) The noodles throwing themselves over the cliff of my table was a freaky surprise to me, but one of those things that most every kid knew about 2 or 3 generations ago when noodles were more often made at home.
