Ingredients for Using an Electric Pasta Maker

For the first step in how to make pasta, I'm going to go over the ingredients and equipment that you'll be using. First, the ingredients. You'll flour and eggs. That's right. That's all that you'll be needing for your pasta. For one pound of pasta, you need about a pound of flour, which if you don't have a kitchen scale, it's equal to approximately 4 cups of flour. Then you'll also need 4 eggs. That's it. Of course, a bowl and a fork to mix it with. You can also have a spatula for scraping the bowl down. For the pasta maker, of course, you'll just need whatever equipment happens to come with your pasta maker. Mine has several different types of dyes that we'll be using. The dyes are what form the pasta shape. I'll be going over several of those with you later. For making the pasta, pasta maker and all the things that come with it. Make sure to read your instructions so that you know that you have everything that you need before you start. Last by not least, you'll also need a sharp knife. This will be for cutting the pasta as it's being extruded from the machine.
