FRESH PASTA



Fresh Pasta image

This fresh pasta is tender yet resilient enough to meet all your pasta needs -- from making simple fettuccine to filled shapes like ravioli or tortellini. The recipe makes about 1 pound of pasta dough, enough to serve 4 to 6 people.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 pound pasta dough

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 large eggs, plus 1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Beat together the eggs, yolk and olive oil with a fork in a large spouted measuring cup.
  • Combine the flour and a large pinch of kosher salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse briefly to combine. With the food processor motor running, gradually pour the egg mixture through the feed tube and let it run until the dough forms a ball around the blade. (If the dough is too sticky to form a ball, add a tablespoon or so of flour and process again. If it is too crumbly to form a ball, add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and process again.) Once the dough forms a ball, process until smooth and springy, 20 to 30 seconds.
  • Transfer the dough to a floured work surface and knead several times, until the dough comes together in a smooth ball.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. (The dough can be made 1 day ahead, wrapped and refrigerated. Let it come to room temperature before rolling.)
  • Anchor a pasta machine to your countertop or secure the pasta attachment to a stand mixer. Set the machine to the widest setting. Unwrap the dough and cut it into 4 equal pieces. Wrap 3 of the pieces while you work with the fourth.
  • Flatten the dough into a rectangle and lightly dust with flour. Roll it through the pasta machine at the widest setting. Fold the dough in thirds like a letter and feed it through the pasta machine. Repeat the folding and feeding of the dough through the machine 2 more times. (Rolling and folding in this manner will help strengthen and smooth the dough.)
  • Set the pasta machine to the next setting (one setting thinner than the widest). Flour the dough as necessary and feed it through the machine. Repeat, feeding it through one more time.
  • Adjust the machine to the next thinnest setting and feed the dough through 2 times as above. Continue changing the setting and feeding the dough through 2 times for each setting until you have fed the dough through the second-to-last setting. The dough should be thin enough so that you can see your hand through it.
  • If you are cutting your pasta into noodles: Stop rolling the dough through after you have gone through the second-to-last setting.
  • If you are making filled pasta, like ravioli: Change the machine to the final setting and feed the dough through.
  • Cut the dough in half crosswise and cover it with plastic wrap. Repeat the folding, rolling and cutting process with the 3 remaining pieces of dough. Cover each piece of dough as you finish. You should have 8 pieces of dough total.
  • If you are cutting your pasta into noodles: Affix the cutting attachment to the pasta machine. Choose the desired setting and feed the dough through. Lightly toss the noodles with a little flour on a baking sheet to prevent sticking and cover with a dry kitchen towel while you process the rest of the dough. Cook the noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • If you are making filled pasta: Proceed according to your recipe's instructions.

PASTA WITH BUTTER, SAGE AND PARMESAN



Pasta With Butter, Sage And Parmesan image

Like many simple sauces, this one takes less time to prepare than the pasta itself. Fresh, fragrant sage is my choice of herb here, but substitutions abound. Try parsley, thyme, chervil or other green herbs in its place. Or cook minced shallot or onion in the butter until translucent. You may even toast bread crumbs or chopped nuts in the butter, just until they're lightly browned. In any case, finish the sauce with a sprinkling of Parmesan, which not only adds its distinctive sharpness, but also thickens the mixture even further.

Categories     quick, pastas

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound cut pasta, like ziti
2 tablespoons butter
30 fresh sage leaves
1 cup or more freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil; salt it. Cook pasta until it is tender, but not quite done.
  • Meanwhile, place butter in a skillet or saucepan large enough to hold the cooked pasta; turn heat to medium, and add sage. Cook until butter turns nut-brown and sage shrivels, then turn heat to a minimum.
  • When the pasta is just about done, scoop out a cup of the cooking water. Drain the pasta. Immediately add it to the butter-sage mixture, and raise heat to medium. Add 3/4 cup of the water, and stir; the mixture will be loose and a little soupy. Cook for about 30 seconds, or until some of the water is absorbed and the pasta is perfectly done.
  • Stir in cheese; the sauce will become creamy. Thin it with a little more water if necessary. Season liberally with pepper and salt to taste, and serve immediately, passing more cheese at the table if you like.

PASTA WITH BROWN BUTTER AND PARMESAN



Pasta With Brown Butter and Parmesan image

Sometimes you just want a big bowl of pasta with butter and Parmesan. Starchy, silky and salty, it's always good - and practically foolproof. To make it a little more grown up, just take it one step further: Brown the butter. When you slide the butter into the skillet, let it cook until the milk solids turn a toasty brown. It adds a rich, nutty flavor that makes the dish a bit more sophisticated with very little extra work.

Categories     easy, quick, weekday, pastas, main course, side dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Kosher salt
1 pound spaghetti, linguine or other long noodle
8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of heavily salted water (2 heaping tablespoons kosher salt to about 7 quarts water) to a boil. Add pasta to boiling water and cook according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta, but don't shake it fully dry.
  • In a skillet or Dutch oven large enough to hold the pasta (and preferably with a light-colored bottom so you can see the butter solids brown), melt the butter over medium heat. Cook, swirling occasionally, until the foam subsides, the milk solids turn golden-brown and it smells nutty and toasty, 3 to 4 minutes. (Watch carefully to see that it does not burn. If it does, start over.) Remove from heat immediately.
  • Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss with the brown butter. Stir in the cheese until melted. Stir in pasta water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the pasta is glossy with sauce (you probably won't need the full 1/2 cup).
  • Serve with black pepper and more Parmesan on top.

Almost As Simple Pasta With Parmesan, Herbs, and Fresh Garlic image

Another family favorite that lends itself to easy variations -- tweak the taste to complement the day's main dish by your choice of herbs.

Categories     Toddler Friendly

Time 17m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb pasta, cooked (any type)
3 -4 tablespoons butter or 3 -4 tablespoons olive oil
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
1 -2 tablespoon fresh herbs (see Directions for suggested combinations) or 1 -2 teaspoon dried herbs (see Directions for suggested combinations)
1/4-1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Saute garlic in butter or olive oil with herbs until garlic is soft but not browned.
  • Toss with hot pasta, Parmesan, salt, and pepper.
  • Herb suggestions: Italian seasoning. Fresh or dried basil. Fresh or dried Rosemary. Herbs de Provence. Fresh or dried basil and oregano in combination. Fresh or dried parsley. Fresh or dried parsley, oregano, and basil. Italian seasoning with a pinch of crushed, red pepper. Fresh chives. Fresh parsley and fresh chives.
  • Tip -- Dried herbs, especially rosemary, may benefit from being re-hydrated in a tablespoon of water or white wine.

Tips

  • Use high-quality ingredients to ensure the best flavor. Fresh pasta, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and unsalted butter are all essential for this recipe.
  • Cook the pasta al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will help it hold its shape and texture when tossed with the sauce.
  • Do not rinse the pasta after cooking. The starch on the pasta helps the sauce adhere to it better.
  • Use a large skillet to cook the sauce. This will give the sauce plenty of room to bubble and thicken.
  • Add the pasta to the sauce and toss to coat. Cook for a minute or two, or until the pasta is heated through.
  • Serve the pasta immediately, topped with additional Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and black pepper.

Conclusion

This fresh pasta with Parmesan butter sauce is a simple but delicious dish that is sure to please everyone at your table. With its rich, creamy sauce and tender pasta, it is a perfect meal for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight dinner, give this recipe a try.
