Basic Pasta Dough (No Egg)

Directions

1. 1
   Put flour in large mixing bowl, making a well in the center.
2. 2
   Add wet ingredients to well and very slowly mix together with a fork, incorporating only a little flour at a time so it mixes smoothly and evenly. Trust me, the more patient you are with this the better it will turn out.
3. 3
   Continue kneading by hand for about 10 minutes, let rest for a half hour covered with a towel. Repeat a couple times until dough is smooth and silky, and just slightly sticky.
4. 4
   Shape by hand or with a machine.
5. 5
   Note: Boiling fresh pasta takes significantly less time than dry pasta. Depending on the shape, cook for 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
