Three Tips for the Best Pasta Dough
Let the Dough Rest
A good dough needs time to rest. Let your pasta dough sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the gluten to relax, creating a softer, more elastic texture. This makes rolling easier and results in a smooth, even finish you’ll notice in every bite.
Roll in Stages
As with any craft, the best results come from taking one step at a time. Rolling pasta dough is no different. Start at the thickest setting and gradually work down to thinner settings. Fold the dough, roll again, and notice how it becomes more even with each pass. This method creates an elastic, durable dough that holds together beautifully, whether you’re making lasagna sheets, fettuccine, or ramen noodles.
The Right Flour Makes a Difference
The flour you choose affects the flavor, texture, and mouthfeel of your culinary creations. Whether your making pasta or dumplings, selecting the right flour enhances the taste and texture of your dish.
- 00 Flour creates classic silky pasta that melts in your mouth.
- Durum adds a fantastic bite and is perfect for distinct shapes like spaghetti and fettuccine.
- Bread Flour is excellent for noodles and dumplings, where you want a smooth, elastic, slightly chewier dough.
