Stages of cooking
-
Pile flour onto a work surface and make a small well in the center; place eggs, egg yolks, olive oil, and salt into the well. Gently stir the egg mixture with a fork, gradually drawing in flour until dough comes together.
-
Knead dough with hands until smooth and leathery, about 10 minutes.
-
Wrap dough in plastic wrap; let rest until malleable, 1 to 2 hours. Remove plastic wrap.
-
Cut dough into four pieces; roll out with a rolling pin. Run flattened pieces through a pasta roller to create desired noodle shape.
