semolina pasta dough

Below, you will find three simple recipes for pasta dough. Whichever one you choose to cook with, make sure you have good quality ingredients and lots of patience for kneading and resting the dough! If you&#039;re looking for pasta shapes you can easily make at home, have a look in the text above!

Three Different Pasta Doughs: Semolina, Egg and Egg Yolk

semolina flour

120 ml warm water

00 flour

eggs

Tip your semolina or 00 flour on a work surface. Create a well. If you&#039;re using water, add it little by little and mix pinching the sides in, creating a paste-like consistency. If you&#039;re adding eggs, crack the eggs/ egg yolks in the well and pinch with your fingertips to start combining (see videos below).

Carry on until the pasta dough completely absorbs the moisture and the dough comes together.

Start kneading the dough by pressing your palm toward forwards on the dough, then fold the dough back and repeat the motion. Keep kneading for 10 minutes, until the dough looks smooth and shiny.

If your dough feels too dry and doesn&#039;t come together, add a tbsp of water at a time, and keep kneading. If it feels too sticky, add a sprinkling of semolina/ 00 flour.

Wrap a dough ball in cling film to prevent drying out and leave to rest for 30-60 minutes.

Rested dough is ready to be used! Videos below show how to create various pasta shapes with or without a pasta machine.

If you have a pasta rolling machine and would like to use to it, there are plenty more shapes you can create with your pasta dough. The video below shows how we make a simple egg pasta dough (Pasta all’uovo) and use it to make six pasta shapes.

5 Pasta Shapes That You Can Make WITHOUT A PASTA MACHINE

Freshly extruded whole wheat and semolina pasta dough at home. 

Whole Wheat Extruded Pasta Dough

Semola flour

g Whole wheat flour

Water

Make the dough

In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment add the flour. Turn the machine on low and slowly drizzle in the water. Continue mixing on low for 5 minutes to allow the water to fully absorb. 

Check consistency

The whole wheat will allow more gluten to form then just using semolina. The consistency should be crumbly with the dough barely forming a dough. It will start to clump but not fully form a dough. 

Extrude the dough

This step will depend on your machine. For a Kitchenaid, they recommend forming the dough into balls and feeding through the hopper. The first few inches will be deformed. This can be fed back into the hopper. As the machine heats up it will start to extrude a smoother dough. 
Cut the dough into desired length and let dry for at least 15 minutes. 
Fresh pasta will cook in around 2 minutes if fresh. If fully dried it will take a bit longer and depend how dry the pasta is.
