- How can I make my own pasta from scratch

Sure! Here are six different ways to answer that question:

**Classic Method**: Just grab some flour and eggs! Use about 2 cups of flour and 3 large eggs. Make a mound of flour on your counter, create a well in the center, and crack the eggs in there. Gradually mix the flour into the eggs with a fork until it forms a dough. Knead it for about 10 minutes, let it rest for 30 minutes, and then roll it out!

**Simple Recipe**: You can make pasta with just flour and water! Mix 2 cups of flour with about 3/4 cup of water until it forms a dough. Knead it for a bit, let it rest, then roll it out and cut it into your favorite shapes!

**Using a Machine**: If you have a pasta machine, that makes it even easier! Just follow the basic flour and egg recipe, then roll the dough through the machine to get it to your desired thickness. It’s super fun!

**Herb-Infused Pasta**: Want to spice things up? Blend some fresh herbs like basil or spinach into your eggs before mixing them with flour. It gives your pasta a nice color and flavor!

**Gluten-Free Option**: If you need a gluten-free version, you can use a gluten-free flour blend and follow the same method. Just make sure to add an egg or some xanthan gum to help it hold together.
