Easy Pasta Dough Recipe

[@jandramardges3368]

I just made this recipe this morning. I weighed my OO flour after measuring out the two cups. AMAZINGLY the 240 grams was actually less than the two cups I measured and sifted! Also…I mixed my eggs and oil with the broad beater of my Kitchen Aid for two minutes then changed to the dough beater and added my flour slowly. I turned it out and kneaded just a few more minutes with my hands….which I love to do but at 82 and with arthritis in both hands and wrists I can’t knead as well as I used to. Wrapped and set it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours and proceeded to make vermicelli and fettuccini with my Atlas 150 pasta machine!! It turned out perfect! Thank you, Chef! The OO flour is so soft and pliable. I really loved using it!

[@chevypreps6417]

Nice work.........I have a kitchen Aid and was wondering if you can kneed pasta with it.

With everything that is going on around the world, the only thing that relaxes me is watching this channel.

[@AlexisYenaiv]

my 19yo son just gave me a pasta maker for Christmas, you're the first video I've seen. love how simple you make it seem. will definitely research more on flours. thank you for an informational yet not too long video.

[@gemiem7434]

I tried this recipe and your techniques and the process was flawless. Had been meaning to make my own pasta for the last 10 years and finally did it yesterday!

[@delilahboa]

John, you’re best baking/cooking teacher on KZbin. You teach us so much with each recipe. I just love your channel. Every baker and cook should subscribe to you. A wealth of knowledge that you are passing on to each of us. I’ve always been terrified of making my own pasta but in such a short time you’ve given me the confidence to try it. You’re the best! Teaching is definitely in your blood…..love you! XxXx 🇬🇧💕

He really is the best. I've used a few of his recipes, and they are legit 🤌

I absolutely agree! He is the best I've found on KZbin, as well! 🥰

Love watching your videos ♥️♥️♥️

[@jetlaggedchef6806]

Pro pasta tip: As soon as it comes together, let it rest for 30 minutes. You'll be able to roll it out much easier then. Gluten develops as the dough hydrates (without kneading). The kneading doesn't develop gluten, it stretches it.

[@kikabxklat6507]

I have a question I made ravioli but they turned hard do you have any tips

[@BlizzardWind99]

Looks delicious! I'd love to see some cooking/baking technique videos such as how to use a water bath properly, how to brown butter, how to temper chocolate, how to make lollipops/sugar candy etc. Can't wait to try this recipe!

Yes. John definitely needs his own show and for it to be televised in the UK. Xx 💕💕

I know you have to have a certain presence for the camera but I LOVED when you were like “who ever is categorizing these eggs is STRAIGHT TRIPPIN” the street ! Lol

[@rwsaline120]

i'm eighteen years old and i did my first pasta dough with you! i'm so happy that i tried it. thank you.

[@georginatellechea334]

You are so charismatic. I just enjoy your voice and the way you explain not only the recipes but the tips and history behind them. You really need to have a TV show!!!

[@jacquiphillips2462]

I keep telling John that too. I can’t believe he came to England and I didn’t know. He visited one of my favourite cupcake wiz kids too. Never mind; next time hopefully! Xx 💕💕

[@islandgal500]

My Mom would make unsweetened thin crepes in a skillet or crepe pan, roll each one up and slice the same way you do to get the strips. She would then drop them into a bowl of broth she made and you'd have instant soup. You can of course add vegetables to the broth to make it heartier, but as a kid, I loved the simplicity of the plain crepe soup. I can now see that you can just take some freshly made pasta and simmer that in a broth too. Thanks for reminding me I need to use my hand crank pasta machine again and showing us your recipe for the pasta dough.

[@donjose06]

It’s so much fun just by watching you turned the right flour into all shapes of pasta. Thank you so much!

[@Moonwillow76]

I've been wanting to make pasta for a long time now and this weekend I finally did! It was so easy and fun to make but the pasta turned out so good! I could eat them with just some butter; but we used them for your shrimp scampi recipe and it was amazing. I am definitely going to be making this pasta often.

[@lucyakata3621]

I used to think making pasta was difficult, but with your coaching, I know I'll definitely try it out! Thanks so much for all you do!

[@dawnwalmsley1511]

I absolutely love the way you explain the process. To know 'why' you are doing certain steps is helpful to be successful with your recipes. Thank you so much!

[@adedow1333]

Oh John, where were you 5 days ago when I was making my own!? I really need a go-to pasta dough recipe. Can't wait to try yours against the one I used! I've never been disappointed in a single recipe of yours.

THANK YOU JOHN! I just made pasta from scratch for the first time on my own. I learned in cooking class in highschool how to make pasta from scratch but forgot and you helped refresh me on that note. Made some fettucine aglio e olio with some chicken on the side

You are so right about the decreasing size of eggs. My mother (who kept chickens and ducks) would have described the UK 'Standard' sized egg as little larger than a Bantam's egg!

You make it look easy! Instead of returning my new pasta making attachments, I will try again. I had too much flour but worked it out anyway. The fresh pasta was worth it!
