Ingredients

• 2.5 cups Italian-style tipo 00 flour , plus additional for dusting
• 3 large eggs
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 tablespoon water , or as needed

Instructions

1. 1 Place flour on a marble or wooden work surface. Make a well in the center; add eggs and salt. Gently beat eggs with a fork, incorporating surrounding flour, until batter is runny. Bring remaining flour into batter using a bench scraper until dough forms a ball. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if dough feels too stiff.
2. 2 Knead dough by flattening the ball, stretching, and folding the top towards the center. Turn 45 degrees and repeat until dough is soft and smooth, about 10 minutes.
3. 3 Shape dough into a ball. Place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
4. 4 Dust work surface with flour. Divide dough into 3 equal portions. Flatten 1 piece, then roll 5 to 6 times with a rolling pin. Turn dough 45 degrees and roll 5 to 6 times more. Continue rolling and turning until dough is 1/16-inch thick.
5. 5 Cut dough into manageable, narrow sheets. Dust generously with flour and roll loosely into logs. Slice logs into 1/4-inch thick strips. Unroll strips and toss generously in flour. Let tagliatelle air-dry, about 30 minutes.
6. 6 Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add tagliatelle and cook until tender yet still firm to the bite, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain.
