Pasta a la Mamma
January 17th, 2018 | side dishes
Home-made pasta, there is nothing better. Soft wheat semolina is the magic word. I was in a small shop for Italian food. At checkout the older grumbled something grouchy, (which must be resulting from living in Northern Germany…) owner: “Pasta? You don’t figure it out anyway.” On the question of whether he was this opinion because I’m not Italian, he replied unmoved: “My wife tried for 40 years, so you will not get out even there.” Allora! Per favore!
Pasta, it’s really that simple:
Pasta, homemade
That's how the wife of the Captain does it
I reckon 100 g flour and 1 egg per person, the ideal dough never sticks to the fingers.
With this basic recipe, I prepare all kinds of noodles and dumplings. It’s perfect!
