Southern Italian Style Semolina and Water Pasta Dough and Handmade Orecchiette

I've watched 28 seconds and have already subscribed. I love this guy. Back to the video ...

[@lvkcocinasimple1616]

First of all thanks for sharing….i have been cooking professionally for more than 22 years, and as always say there’s no need for a recipe, but a guideline. Meaning you use the guideline to make your own exclusive recipe. Since we are all beautiful human beings, we create our own flavors from childhood and we add some on the way, that’s the beauty and passion i put in my food ❤❤❤

[@douglasreed4073]

Love this message. It’s on you to make food as great as it can and should be.

[@mrgeorgejetson]

Simple but great. I love the fact that you're encouraging people to learn from doing and follow their instincts, rather than slavishly follow recipes. I enjoy reading cookbooks because they're great for inspiration, but in general it's extremely rare that I'll actually follow a recipe to the letter (and perhaps this is why I don't bake!). I remember my mom trying to get precise recipes out of my grandmother, with questions like "How much flour are you using?" and Granny's answer would always be "You use as much as you need!" I took that one to heart, and it's served me well ever since.

Warm dish? A couple drops of water and 45 seconds in the microwave. Evaporates the water and warms the bowl or plate perfectly. I love fresh pasta vs dry. Thanks for the technique Chef!

[@davidhill4549]

Great video again - I make my own egg pasta regularly taught by my Italian Nonna - and her rule of thumb is 100g 00 for/1 medium egg.

[@fsx70]

- U gotta get to know the dough - Took it out for drinks last night, seems like a nice guy

[@albedublin]

As an italian, learning from my dad, almost perfect. Bravo!!

[@iiChromEo]

In the video you said “you need to learn from people who learned from masters” and this case that is me learning from YOU! I cannot thank you enough for all the informational videos you’ve put out for us. Quality is always top notch. Thanks man 🙏🏼

[@MrJcrook88]

Dude i am learning so much from you. You are not only amazing at your craft, you are also an excellent teacher.

[@frazakhtar8822]

That was about as perfect a cooking tutorial video available anywhere... Thank you

[@johnkirton4588]

This video was fantastic. I tried making pasta for the first time after getting the kitchen aid pasta attachments. Followed instructions and came a way with a wonderful pasta making experience. Love your channel!

[@JeezJeezy]

Damn dude you are criminally underrated. Approachable and educational. Just solid content.

[@saborisaha1789]

I followed your recipe to the t. And it was fantastic 😊

[@karengray8618]

I THINK YOU ARE JUST FABULOUS, PLUS YOU EXPLAIN WELL! GOD BLESS!

[@iPhonix07]

Daaamn that pasta looked really good! As a tip to people who might want to try it my mum/grandma use as a general guideline 1 egg/100gr of 00 flour. Just make the well mix it up and the dough will then let you know what it needs as Stephen said

[@asamax64]

A egg per person

[@NoNo-ym7vz]

I would love to see all the cook books you'd recommend

[@alisonburgess345]

I've ONLY JUST finally bought a pasta machine. It's so much fun to use. Highly recommend getting one if you haven't already! Good stuff again Stephen.

[@ailurophile71]

Great video, fantastic advice. One note: Protein content of "00" flour can vary so don't just grab the first bag of "00" you see, although apparently most "00" flour in the US has a protein level similar to AP flour.

[@populousoyster]

The process is definitely an art. Amazing

[@saborisaha1789]

How beautifully explained

[@Rooijakkers]

Steve serving his pasta's on a wooden cutting board for years. Also Steve: "I forgot to tell you all these years you have to serve your pasta in a warm plate".

[@RGsFood]

I always wondered how Evan Funke got his dough to look so picture perfect in his video where he makes all the different pasta shapes. This is it 👌

[@nimvaughen9895]

I made it last night...was supper yummy gooooooooood!!! Thank You so much.

[@tomsfoodfactory5086]

You may have just solved my problem! The first time I made pasta is was perfect. But, I didn't cook anything else at that time. The next few times I was actively cooking with more heat, humidity, etc. The pasta didn't turn out so great. This explains it! Great video!

[@Jacob-ry3lu]

5:30 “now start to feel the dough and understand what it’s going through” Me talking to my dough ball: Damn that sucks man, I’m really sorry you’re going through that...

[@tomsfoodfactory5086]

My Dad always said "the more your Mom curses at the dough, the better it tastes." I think this may be the same scenario. 🙄

[@CookingAtPamsPlace]

Awesome info

[@gregpappas]

You are an amazing man! Your brain and your caring are so impressive.

[@G-Unit1111]

One thing I've learned trying to make my own pasta - keep it simple! If you try to get too complicated, it will go very south very quickly!

[@smyc305]

Thanks for the great videos man, you’re videos have helped me cook for my family dozens of times !

[@jeannecooke4862]

Thank you ..... thank you ........ and, thank you!!!!!!!!

[@esmith3998]

I fkn love you man. Thank you so much for upping my food game. I've been obsessed with your channel for a while now and every recipe just turns out amazing. I love all the simple techniques especially the Italian cooking. The authentic ways you teach us! Just amazing stuff man.

[@LarsJeppesen]

I am sold - great show

[@derryXDINES]

Great video dude. Between the laid back vibe and really detailed tutorial, I hope this inspires more people to make their own pasta!

[@Kowzorz]

I loved how thorough this was. Great!

[@etherdog]

Solid info. Homemade pasta is next level and we love doing it!

[@adamg.manning6088]

Great video, but in terms of egg dough, the yolk gives the structure and the whites give the stretch. That’s why in Vetri’s book, he suggest a whole egg dough for ravioli and stuffed pasta. Egg yolk only doughs are incredibly tough to work with and result in tense pasta that is great for tagliatelle alla Bolognese.

[@joycie3689]

Steveo, you nailed it again... looking forward to making this delish pasta. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication!

[@markopavlovic3032]

More videos from these books my friend!! Please keep em coming

[@martijnhoogelander7258]

After kneeding it looks like a little wheel of dutch cheese, gorgeous!

[@aujkalenic4203]

I've always let my pasta sit for about 3 hrs before rolling out. I have put my pasta dough in frig overnight and made pasta noodles the next day, it was fine!

[@hassnali3209]

Thank you man we really appreciate your hard work ❤️ ❤️🔥🔥

[@BigCrafterTX]

Leaving it in the fridge over night will leave the dough so perfect you won’t need to flour your pasta machine.

[@saborisaha1789]

You are amazing chef

[@DrBrunoRecipes]

Lovely 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day everyone 🌻

[@LE0NSKA]

you legit make this look fun and achieveable...

[@loufancelli1330]

I've been making egg and flour pasta for over 25 years and even I learned something today! I've never let my dough rest overnight before. Usually I let it rest on the counter for 30 minutes or so before rolling it through the machine. Then I have to let the sheets dry before I run them through the cutter. It looks like you went directly from the roller to the cutter and got a cleaner cut. I'm definitely going to try this the next time I make pasta.

[@beckyworoshello3822]

how was it?

[@ramencurry6672]

He teaches more than my dad

[@samual8299]

Man, maybe I should try this. I make fresh pasta a few times a week but my process is SO simple. I weigh eggs, use 1.7x that weight in 00, knead for a few minutes, wrap tight in plastic and let rest for 30 min, and done. The finished product looks identical to this but is so much faster and easier, so easy in fact that I don't mind making fresh pasta 3x per week. I've got to try this method now to compare.

[@Peterswag]

did you test it??

[@samual8299]

@@Peterswag yes. I really truly could not tell a difference in the finished product. I'll stick with my easy method lol

[@michaelanunez]

awesome video Thank You for sharing...

[@deerogatory]

I'm building a home right now that will have a 9 foot island. This is exactly the very first thing I plan to make on it.

[@LH1012]

Why does the title say semolina and water dough but the video is an egg dough?

[@FRSTaK]

Nice video, wanted to try again homemade pastas once again soon ! I don't have a pasta machine but whatever i'll do it without it thank you sir

[@lorettashumate446]

Got all the stuff to get this done but a little chicken to start. I bought a pasta machine, made all the sauces (with dry pasta), even found Caputo 00 flour. Diving in tomorrow.

[@Unpacked_Mind]

Not Another Pasta Video!! Being serious, though, please do not stop, as these are great and informative videos.

[@NOTANOTHERCOOKINGSHOW]

Thank you my friend

[@saborisaha1789]

Fantastic work

[@Titanlord10000]

Waited for this episode for sooooo long!!! Thanks xD

[@ThemBEanss]

Now you gotta start rolling by hand. I bought Funke’s book after you featured him on the channel and have never touched my pasta machine since. #themattarellolife

[@zarbosamusic]

Thanks. Nice work.

[@mauroger86]

Thank you so much for your video brother! I made some amazing pasta last weekend using your knead-relax method, it turned out perfect :)

[@LadyMaltese]

You and your channel are both amazing. True cooking Zen.

Really awesome looking pasta. Cheers!

very nice introduction

[@brandeeisbomb]

I've tried making pasta several times and always have a hard time with it. I think I'll give it another shot

[@The3boredguys]

It’s worth it. So much better and if you get enough practice it becomes much less tedious

[@realsaratu]

You are so inspiring. Thank you for this.

[@Statelinescratcher]

Here I am, sitting here, trying to learn how to make excellent pasta, while eating a plate of kraft mac & cheese. Man i wanna get good at this! Practice makes perfect!

[@adeeshaeshan6744]

Big fan of your videos. Can you recommend us more Italian culinary books

[@ronk4073]

Marc Vetri: Eagles fan.

[@therepresentative1619]

Great video!!👍

[@dcfan2222]

Tried for my first time tonight and it wouldn't come together😭 it was not folding into itself, just layering. I'm confident it was too dry. I live high in the mountains, and just followed an exact recipe. This video helped me a ton! I'm not discouraged, and I'm gonna keep trying til I get it right!

[@brooklynpastalab]

Very nice!!!

[@ulknudel21]

I really love your videos! I am from Germany, and i would love it to live in the area you live. I think it is allowed to dream :D

[@Ace_Of_Bace]

My friend, you are a good teacher! I know, I am one ;-) !

[@crazybohne13]

So beautiful!

[@littlestar5737]

Those who want to make perfect pasta dough should keep in mind to not knead the dough too much. You don't want to develop gluten like you would do for bread dough. Just 4 minutes is good. You don't even need to have perfect dough ball. Then keep the dough ball resting for 30 minutes before rolling. I've been making pasta for decades with different grains and I have to make no change with this technique.

[@darinbeepath629]

Exceptional well done👌

Amazingly helpful and interesting video again man! Do any of the books also mention how to make a perfect pizza dough? I never seem to get that right :p

[@newsandreviewswithjay4990]

Try watching #VitoLacopelli videos. He has really great and easy to follow tutorials for authentic Italian pizza and he has made many different style recipes for almost all events and for different ovens which is great. I highly recommend

[@newsandreviewswithjay4990]

I already knew how to make pizza as I worked for gourmet Italian restaurants for a while, but this Chef honestly made me more knowledgeable and make wayyyyyy better pizza dough.

[@sassounhagopian4144]

Great episode, man.

[@umfiona]

That simple sauce makes the pasta sing! Question: what pasta machine do you use/recommend please? Thanks and love your channel.

[@Галя-ц6л]

Does it work with semola? How do you store the pasta for days?

[@xxwafflez]

Incredible video my brotha

[@Yozef10]

can we keep the pasta dough for one day in the fridge then use it like we want ?

Oh hell yeah, Bank Holiday weekend sorted

Can I use wheat flower instead ?
