Ingredients

• 300 grams 00 flour or all-purpose flour
• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons White wine
• 0.25 teaspoons Saffron threads
• 2 tablespoons Warm water
• 0.5 teaspoons Fine sea salt

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the saffron threads and warm water. Let the saffron steep for 5-10 minutes until the water turns a deep golden-orange color.

Step 2

On a clean surface or a large mixing bowl, create a mound with the flour. Make a well in the center of the mound.

Step 3

Crack the eggs into the well, and add the saffron water, white wine, and salt.

Step 4

Using a fork, gently whisk the eggs while slowly incorporating the surrounding flour. Continue until a shaggy dough forms.

Step 5

Once the dough begins to come together, use your hands to knead it. Knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Step 6

If the dough is too sticky, add a small amount of flour. If it’s too dry, add a teaspoon of water or white wine to adjust the consistency.

Step 7

Form the dough into a ball, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and let it rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax and makes rolling out the pasta easier.

Step 8

Once rested, the dough is ready to be rolled out and shaped into your desired pasta style. Use a rolling pin or a pasta machine to achieve your desired thickness.
