Ingredients
  • 5 cup Semolina flour
  • 3 Eggs
  • 3 Egg Yolks
  • 1 teaspoon Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 12 tablespoon Cold water
  • 1/4 cup Chopped parsley
  • 1 tablespoon Salt (for boiling water)
Directions
  1. 1
    Place semolina flour in a large bowl and make a well in the center.

    In a small bowl, combine eggs, egg yolks, 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 12 tablespoons cold water; whisk until blended.
  3. 3
    Pour the egg mixture into the well in the flour.
  4. 4
    Stir with a wooden spoon, gradually incorporating flour from the sides, until the mixture clumps together and forms a dry, firm ball.
  5. 5

    Divide dough into 4 equal pieces; cover 3 pieces with the damp cloth.

  9. 9
    Reduce the machine setting and roll the dough through once at each setting, ending at the second-thinnest setting.
  10. 10
    Trim dough sheets into 12-inch lengths and cut into wide strips using a fettuccine blade or knife.
  11. 11
    Fluff strands to separate and lay them on floured trays or racks.
  12. 12
    Repeat the rolling and cutting process with the remaining 3 pieces of dough.
