Fresh Egg Pasta
(makes 1 pound)

Ingredients
2 cups unbleached flour, sifted
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoon warm water, or more if necessary

Directions
In a food processor, combine the flour and salt; pulse a few times to blend. Mix the eggs with the olive oil; add to the processor. Turn the machine on; gradually drizzle in the water, beginning with 1 tablespoon. Stop and feel the dough; it should adhere when squeezed together between your fingers, but it shouldn't feel sticky. Continue to knead the dough in the processor until satiny-smooth. Transfer the dough to a bowl, cover and let rest for 1 hour before rolling out.
