🍝 Fettuccine
Fettuccine is a type of Italian pasta that’s long, flat, and ribbon-like—perfect for creamy sauces like Alfredo or rich tomato-based sauces.
🧾 Ingredients (Basic Fettuccine Pasta)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (or 1 cup flour + 1 cup semolina for extra texture)
- 3 large eggs
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp olive oil (optional)
👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Make the dough
- On a clean surface, make a well with flour.
- Crack eggs into the center, add salt and olive oil.
- Slowly mix the flour into the eggs until it forms a dough.
2️⃣ Knead the dough
- Knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Cover with plastic wrap and let rest 30 minutes.
3️⃣ Roll and cut
- Roll the dough thin using a rolling pin or pasta machine.
- Cut into ½-inch wide ribbons (fettuccine).
- Dust with flour to prevent sticking.
4️⃣ Cook the pasta
- Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
- Cook fresh fettuccine for 2–4 minutes (or until al dente).
