Author: Matt Weber
Recipe type: Pasta
Serves: 4
Ingredients
Pasta:
2 cups whole wheat flour
1½ cups semolina flour
1 teaspoon salt
5 large eggs
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
Brown Butter Sage Sauce:
4 tablespoons butter
8 small sage leaves
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Instructions
Pasta:
Combine flours and salt in a small bowl and then dump into a mound on a clean counter top. Create a well in the center of the mound and add the eggs and olive oil. With a fork, start to gently whisk the eggs and then start pulling in more of the flour from the edges, eventually combining all the ingredients into a stiff dough.
Knead the dough for approximately 8-10 minutes until it becomes satiny and smooth.
Divide the dough into 4 pieces, wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for at least 30 minutes.
Using Pasta Roller, roll out to desired thickness and then use your desired noodle setting to cut into noodles.
Cook fresh pasta in salted boiling water for 4-6 minutes.
Brown Butter Sage Sauce:
Melt butter in sauce pan over medium heat. Continue cooking until butter begins to brown. Remove from heat and add the sage and lemon juice. Add pasta and toss to coat.
