Question

well i'm vegetatrian !!

Answer 1

To make one pound of pasta, you need 2 cups of unbleached flour, 3 large eggs, and a 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Place the flour on a table in a mound and make a well in the center. Put the eggs and salt into the well.

Mix the eggs together with a fork without disturbing the flour.

Using a fork, gently incorporate the flour into the egg mixture a little at a time

Once you have incorporated all of the flour together with the egg using a fork, switch to a bench knife or use your fingertips to blend the mixture together well

After the wet and dry ingredients have been combined using the dough knife, bring the mixture together with your hands to form a ball. If the dough seems to dry, add a little more egg mixture. If the mixture is too wet and sticks to your fingers, rub your hands with flour and form the dough into a ball.

Knead the pasta dough as you would bread dough. Pushing down and away from you with the palm of your hand. Turn the dough ninety degrees, fold the dough over on itself and push down and away again. Continue this until the dough is smooth, about 7 minutes.

Using the bench knife, cut the dough into 3 equal sections. Form each section into a ball. Cover the dough balls with a towel or bowl and let rest for 15 minutes

A pasta machine is great for rolling and cutting the dough. They are inexpensive and can be found at major kitchen stores or online. If you don't have a pasta machine, a rolling pin will work just fine.
Flatten one of the dough balls with the palm of your hand until it's about 1/2 an inch thick and no wider than the slot of the pasta machine. With the slot of the pasta machine on its widest setting (usually 1), turn the handle while feeding the dough into the slot. Gently hold the flattened dough as it comes out of the pasta machine, but don't pull on it.

After the dough has completely passed through the pasta machine, turn the slot down to the next smallest setting and pass the dough through the slot. Continue to do this, making the slot smaller by one each time. Don't try to skip a number, as this will only cause the machine to jam and you'll end up with a mess and no pasta.
As you continue rolling the pasta, your sheet of dough will get longer and longer. Try to gently hold the dough as it exits the pasta machine so it doesn't tear. This is a great time to have an assistant help you.

Continue passing the dough through the machine until it's about an 1/16th of an inch thick.

After rolling the dough out to the desired thickness, it's time to cut the dough into pasta. Most pasta machines, come with an adapter that cuts the dough. If you are working on a table, you may wish to cut your dough in half to make it easier to handle.
Feed the dough into the cutting blades. Try to have your hand under the center of the cut dough, so you can pick it all up in one bunch.

Alternatively, if you don't have a pasta machine, you can fold the rolled dough into a square. Cut the open end of the square a quarter inch at a time. Immediately, unroll the pasta and lay flat.

Immediately after cutting the dough, hang the pasta on a dowel or other object (a clothes drying rack works great). You can also lay the pasta flat on a towel, but it is more likely to stick together.
The pasta can be used right away or will keep up to a week.

Answer 3

Do you want to know, how to make pasta from scratch or how to cook pasta?. Well, since you mentioned you are vegetarian, making pasta from scratch requires eggs, flour and water. Eggs are the binder. To cook pasta, you need boiling water with a a good pince of salt, cook it for 5-7 minutes and drain. Then toss it is a sauce made of butter, mushrooms, and olives or a tamato sauce with vegetables of your choice and sprinkle parmesan cheese prior to eating. bon appetite.

Answer 4

Yield 8 servings
Time 1 hour 15 minutes
Tools saucepan
ladle
9x13-in or other large baking dish

Ingredients 1 pound dry lasagne noodles
2-3 c Italian tomato sauce
2 small or one large zucchini, grated
½-1 pound ricotta cheese
3 large bunches spinach, washed and stemmed
1 pound mozzarella cheese, grated or thinly sliced
½ pound provolone, grated or thinly sliced (optional)

Directions Bring the tomato sauce to a boil, stir in the zucchini, and cook for about 5 minutes.

Ladle a bit of sauce into the baking dish and spread it around so that the bottom of the dish is lightly coated.

Preheat oven to 350.

Place lasagne noodles in the pan to form a single layer. If necessary, break noodles to fill gaps.

Spread 1/3 of the ricotta cheese on the noodles, then lay out 1/3 of the spinach on top of that. Sprinkle or place 1/3 of the cheese, then cover with tomato sauce.

Repeat twice, using 1/3 of ingredients for each layer, saving a sprinkle of cheese to garnish the top.

Bake for about 1 hour, until sauce is bubbly and cheese is melted. Let cool slightly and serve.

Notes You don't actually need to cook the lasagne noodles ahead of time, as long as they are surrounded by plenty of sauce.
The vague amounts of sauce and cheese are deliberate - personally, I like tons of cheese and sauce in my lasagne, but others think it's excessive and prefer more vegetables.
