Spinach Noodles from Scratch
Ingredients
- 2.5 ozfresh spinach
- 3egg yolks
- 2.5 cups00 flour
- 1 tbspolive oil
- 1 tspsalt
Steps
- 01
Blend the spinach and egg yolks in a blender or food processor until smooth.
- 02
In a medium bowl, mix the 00 flour and salt.
- 03
Make a well in the flour on a clean, dry surface. Fill the well with the spinach mixture and drizzle the olive oil on top.
- 04
Slowly incorporate the flour into the spinach mixture using a fork and a bench scraper.
- 05
Once the dough starts to come together, knead it by hand until a smooth ball forms.
- 06
Split the dough in half and roll each half into a 1/2-inch-thick disc.
- 07
Roll the dough into sheets using a pasta roller (I roll to size 3) — spinach dough holds up better rolled a little thicker than a standard noodle.
- 08
Cut the sheets into your desired length and shape, then hang to dry.
- 09
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the noodles. Cook until tender, 7-10 minutes.
- 10
Strain and serve with your sauce of choice — these have so much flavor on their own that good olive oil and garlic is plenty. Best eaten the same day; fresh pasta doesn't keep long in the fridge.
