Common Questions & Things to remember when making fresh pasta…

How much flour do I need to make fresh pasta & How do I know when my pasta dough is ready?
You need as much flour as it takes until your dough is no longer sticky, smooth & bounces back with a gentle finger poke.

How long does it take to cook fresh pasta?
Pasta is ready to cook immediately in salted boiling water for 2-5 minutes depending on the thickness & type of pasta. Test a noodle after 2-3 minutes and continue testing until pasta is cooked to your personal preference.

What is the best way to store Fresh Pasta for optimal freshness? Do you need to thaw frozen pasta?
Pasta can also be frozen for weeks, best within 1-2 weeks for ultimate freshness. Do Not Thaw, stick directly into boiling salted water, cook time is the same as fresh, maybe a tad longer.

How much time do I need to set aside to make fresh pasta?
Knead Time: 5-7 mins
Rest Time: 30 mins, covered at room temperature
Rolling Out & Cutting By Hand: 30+ mins
I’d say you should set 2 hours aside for making fresh homemade pasta by hand

Is fresh pasta really that much better?
Yes, yes it absolutely is better.
