HOMEMADE WHOLE WHEAT PASTA

1 1/2 cups AP flour
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp sea salt
4 eggs
2 tsp olive oil

sift together the flours & salt in a medium bowl, or on a clean cutting board. make a hollow in the center & pour in the olive oil. break the eggs into the hollow one at a time while mixing quickly with a fork, until the dough is wet enough to come together. knead on a lightly floured surface until the dough is stiff & elastic. cover. let relax for 30 minutes.

roll out dough with a rolling pin or use a pasta machine to achieve the desired thickness of noodles. cut into desired width & shape. allow the pasta to air dry for at least 15 minutes to prevent it from clumping when cooking.
