,

5 eggs?

I just chucked out the pasta dough made according to Jamie’s recipe. My cheesemaker friend sent me a much simpler recipe:

100g plain flour and one egg.

wet with water as necessary

bring ingredients together

knead a bit

roll out into  a thickness that will go through the pasta machine

dust with plenty of flour

roll pasta  several times adjusting the thickness until pasta is nice and thin

If that works, there will be a small victory celebration in our kitchen tonight.
