Ingredients

  • 1 kg spelt flour
  • 500 g whole wheat flour
  • 4–5 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1–1.5 liters milk (use as needed)
  • 1 tablespoon salt

Instructions

  1. Mix the Flours:
    In a large bowl, combine the spelt flour, whole wheat flour, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
  2. Form the Dough:
    Create a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the beaten eggs. Gradually start kneading while adding the milk little by little. Add just enough milk to achieve a firm dough.
  3. Knead and Rest:
    Knead the dough for approximately 10 minutes until smooth. Cover it with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  4. Roll Out the Dough:
    Using a pasta machine, roll out the dough into thin sheets. Lay the sheets on a clean cloth to dry slightly. They should dry just enough to avoid breaking but still be pliable.
  5. Cut the Pasta:
    Once the sheets are ready, pass them through the pasta cutter attachment to create long strips.
  6. Cook or Store:
    • For Fresh Pasta: You can cook the pasta immediately in boiling salted water.
    • For Storage: Spread the pasta strips on a cloth to dry completely. Once dried, store them in a cotton pillowcase and keep them in a cool, dry place for use in winter.
