Dont buy pasta, make it!

When it comes to fine cuisine Italian food tends to be at the top of most peoples lists. Its easy to digest, very tasty and wants you get the hang of it, its quite simple to prepare. Pasta is top of the Italian food list, however most people tend to just order it or buy it, but if you want to live the Green way which is better for you and our shared planet then maybe its time you made your own pasta!

Firstly, the main thing you need if you want it to be the best pasta possible is a pasta machine, now you can get these anywhere and they are usually not that expensive so shop around.

Now, for the Eco ingredients, you need organic white flour of course and some free range eggs, 3 will give you a good size portion but depending on how many people are eating you might need more.

Next you need to mix together the flour and eggs in a medium sized bowl until it starts to feel tougher, use your hands the way the chef’s do and kneed the mixture into a smooth dough. Remember to add plenty of water if the dough is getting dry in your hands and that will sort it out.

Then you need your rolling pin to even the dough out and start cutting of sections which you will then begin to place evenly into your pasta machine. Then you can shape the pasta whichever way you want. From the classic look to the more daring, its up to you. Then you just cook away! Enjoy your Eco made pasta, the freshest, tastiest way it should be.
