This is my go to recipe for pasta.<\/span><\/p>\n Yes, you get flour on the counter. Maybe a dusting of it on the floor, too. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n You can, however, have a gourmet meal with little more than egg, water, and flour, and the investment of perhaps 15 minutes. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n To children, it is like mom sanctioned play-dough–and no one yells at you for eating it! For dad, it is a comfort food that provides the smell of garlic throughout the house when he arrives home hungry and ready for family time. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n For mom, you know that you are feeding your family the freshest (and most economical) meal of the week. You can even sneak in those otherwise-slimy green vegetables the kids will not eat. This time, I added Stinging Nettle for a serious boost of nutrition. Stay tuned for the next blog on cooking with Stinging Nettle<\/a>! <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n In our house, Mom, Dad, and the children all participate in making batches of homemade pasta.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sometimes we put it into the dehydrator <\/a>for a quick meal another day…but we must always plan to cook a batch right away for that instant gratification. I have not always found a lot of ways to enjoyably eat Stinging Nettle, but this is one Stinging Nettle recipe that is kid approved. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/strong>(serves 4)<\/span><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n 4 eggs<\/span><\/p>\n 1 cup water<\/span><\/p>\n 4-4.5 cups freshly milled flour (soft white, hard white or durum wheat)<\/span><\/p>\n Spinach, Stinging Nettle, or other vegetables (optional)<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Step 1: Beat eggs.<\/span><\/p>\n Step 2: Add 1 cup water<\/span><\/p>\n Step 3: Add 1 cup flour and stir well<\/span><\/p>\n Step 4: Add in chopped greens or other vegetable as desired.<\/span><\/p>\n Step 5: Add in the remainder of flour until pasta is very malleable like bread dough. Knead for approximately 5 minutes until a smooth texture.<\/span><\/p>\n Step 6: Roll out with rolling pin and feed through Atlas pasta machine<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Step 7: Let pasta rest on counter as long as desired. Boil for approximately 3 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n Step 8: Serve with either butter and garlic or a sauce of your choice. <\/p>\n Enjoy–<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Chaya<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n High Altitude Bread Baking and Recipe<\/a><\/p>\n Homemade Bread Recipe–Pantry Paratus Style<\/a><\/p>\n What I Put In My Bread–The Why<\/a><\/p>\n Basics of Bread Baking–An Interview with Chaya’s Mentor<\/a><\/p>\n Pantry Paratus Pita Bread Recipe<\/a><\/p>\n
