π©βπ³ Instructions
1οΈβ£ Make a Flour Well
Place the flour on a clean surface and form a well in the center.
2οΈβ£ Add Wet Ingredients
Crack the eggs into the well. Add olive oil and salt.
3οΈβ£ Mix
Using a fork, gently beat the eggs while gradually pulling flour from the sides into the center.
4οΈβ£ Knead
Once the mixture thickens, begin kneading with your hands.
Knead for 8β10 minutes until the dough becomes smooth, elastic, and slightly firm.
βοΈ It should feel soft but not sticky.
5οΈβ£ Rest
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
(This relaxes the gluten and makes rolling easier.)

Cut the dough into 3β4 portions.
7οΈβ£ Roll Thin
Using a pasta machine or rolling pin, roll each portion very thin β slightly translucent but not tearing.
8οΈβ£ Cut
Trim into straight rectangular lasagna sheets with clean edges.
9οΈβ£ Prepare to Use
Lightly dust with flour.
Use immediately or allow to dry slightly before assembling your lasagna.
