Title: Mario Batali's Basic Pasta Dough
Categories: Five, Pasta
Yield: 1 1/4 pounds

3 1/4 c A-P flour; + extra for
- kneading
5 lg Eggs

Mound the flour in the center of a large wooden board. Make
a well in the center of the flour and add the eggs. Using a
fork, beat the eggs together and then begin to incorporate
the flour, starting with the inner rim of the well. As you
expand the well, keep pushing the flour up to retain the
well shape (do not worry if it looks messy). When half of
the flour is incorporated, the dough will begin to come
together. Start kneading the dough, using primarily the
palms of your hands. Once the dough is a cohesive mass, set
the dough aside and scrape up and discard any dried bits of
dough.

Lightly flour the board and continue kneading for 10
minutes, dusting the board with additional flour as
necessary. The dough should be elastic and a little sticky.

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and allow to rest for 30
minutes at room temperature before using.

Makes about 1 1/4 lbs.
