Course: Main Course

Ingredients
  

Dough
  • 250 g cake flour or half cake flour and half durum wheat semolina, plus extra for kneading
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1–3 tbsp water added a little at a time
To finish
  • 2 tbsp durum wheat semolina for dusting, or use flour
  • salt for the cooking water

Equipment

  • Sana 707 juicer with homogenising screen
  • Round or flat noodle nozzle (included with the 707)
  • Mixing bowl
  • Scissors
  • Tray dusted with semolina
  • Large pot

Method
 

Make the dough
  1. Mix the flour and salt in a bowl and make a well in the centre. Crack in the eggs and add 1 tbsp of water.
  2. Stir with a fork, drawing in the flour, until it forms a shaggy dough. Add more water a teaspoon at a time until all the flour is taken up.
  3. Knead for 5 to 8 minutes until the dough is smooth, soft and pliable. It should dent easily when pressed and roll into a sausage without cracking. If it is sticky, knead in a little flour.
  4. Wrap the dough and rest it at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Make the pasta
  1. Fit the homogenising screen to the 707, put the noodle nozzle in the drum cap and clip the cap on. Dust a tray under the outlet with semolina.
  2. Cut the dough into small pieces and roll each into a thumb-thick sausage that drops easily into the feed tube.
  3. Switch on and feed one piece at a time, letting the auger take each before adding the next.
  4. Snip the strands at about 20 to 25 cm with scissors. Toss them in semolina and lay them in loose nests.
Cook
  1. Cook in a large pot of well-salted boiling water for 2 to 4 minutes, tasting from 2 minutes.
  2. Drain, keeping a splash of the cooking water to loosen the sauce, and serve straight away.

Notes

Makes three main portions or four starters. Keep the dough on the soft side: the 707 manual warns that a dough that is too stiff may damage parts of the juicer.
