If you want a long rolling pin like Lulu's. Don't spend a fortune, just buy a broom or mop handle from your local hardware shop , cut it to the size you want (You might even get two out of it) Give it a good clean with fresh lemon juice and away you go!
I read a description of this method in Marcella Hazan's book. It took far too long to find someone demonstrating it properly. Thank you so much for sharing the video!
Wow. SO awesome! Thank you, Grandma LuLu! I just spent 4 hours making home made pasta, which is RIDICULOUS! The reason it took do long is because I dont have a rolling pin like Grandma Lulus, so I literally stretched every single noodle strand by hand! Im going to make one from my broom handle. Thank you so much for this wonderful video! I appreciate it very, very much! God be with you all. 💖🙏🏼🤗
This video helped me way more than other videos on CZcams. I gave up when making pasta for a my project but this has motivated me to do it again. Thanks so much!
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment! For more great pasta tutorials, we hope you'll consider subscribing to our channel and clicking the bell for new video notifications :)
My mom and both grandmas have done this all their lives. Result is amazing. Theoretically you can do this with a machine but honestly you can tell the difference if you're used to hand made. Thank you for sharing.
Let us know how it goes! If you haven't already, subscribe and click the bell for new video notifications. Grandma Lulu has more pasta and other recipes coming soon :) In the meantime, check out her gnocchi from scratch video: czcams.com/video/X32p5dKWSUE/video.html
This is good, but I also learnt a lot by applying some of the traditional techniques for hand rolling thin dough which Japanese use for Soba which is capable of making it not just thin but into a square shape
We definitely will! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. We hope you'll consider subscribing to our channel for more videos like this, including from Grandma Lulu :) Click the bell for new video notifications.
Hi Hannah! The key, as Grandma demonstrates, is to start by pulling in about 3/4 of the flour called for and adding more as needed. Let us know how it goes! We hope you'll consider subscribing to our channel (it's free!) and clicking the bell for new video notifications. More from Grandma Lulu coming soon...
The thing they don't mention here is the board she is rolling the pasta on. It's unfinished wood and gets "impregnated" with flour....which makes the process MUCH easier. If you try to do this on a typical American countertop (formica, finished concrete, stainless steel) it will be far more difficult.
Yes, you can! If you prefer a slightly more 'al dente' texture to your final cooked dough, this other recipe on our channel will deliver that: czcams.com/video/oyv-u3u0slU/video.html
okay i made this it’s literally resting as i speak and honestly i don’t think i did it right, maybe because i used all-purpose flour so i’ll check back and update
All purpose flour is fine. Just remember there is no set portion of egg to flour. It's always best to add about 3/4 of the flour recommended and add more as needed until reaching the consistency shown in the video. Let us know how it went!
Hello guys. I tried making this at home but when I boiled it. It wasn't cooking, I boiled for abt 20 minutes for my pasta and it was just soggy and had a squishy taste. If you can help me please do so I'd really appreciate it
Hi there! The water should be boiling vigorously before you add the pasta (lots of bubbles and activity). You can see how vigorously for a moment in this video (minute 2:00): czcams.com/video/4s_LO4tORxo/video.html However, we will plan to release a video soon on 'how to cook pasta' for those who may wonder what exactly 'boiling' means for pasta and how to know if it is done. Also, fresh pasta only needs a minute or two-much less than dry pasta which still never needs more than about 10 minutes max to cook it to 'al dente', depending on the pasta. Fresh tagliatelle prepared properly only needs about a minute. So, that explains why your pasta was too soft. We appreciate the question! It lets us know what videos we should add in the future for those who may be totally new to cooking pasta. If you haven't already, subscribe (it's free) and click the bell for new video notifications. :)
Hi Laura- It wasn't a serrated knife, but a very long and sharp one. We will review the subtitles to see if any corrections should be made to make things clearere. The term you are referring to is 'tagliatelle' (a pasta similar in size to fettuccine). You may find the written guide on our website to be useful: www.piattorecipes.com/fresh-egg-pasta-dough-recipe/
You can use a stand mixer. Be sure to start by adding just 3/4 of flour recommended and add more slowly as needed till you reach the consistency shown. It’s easy to add more flour, but harder to correct a dough that is too dry :)
Great question! In fact, you can (see the spinach pasta in our lasagne bolognese video as an example). Just be sure to add just 3/4 of the flour called for to the bowl at first and only add more flour if needed.
Hi James-Italians like their pasta 'al dente' (which literally means 'to the teeth' or with a bit of bite. Could it be that's what you might be interpreting as 'raw'? By Italian standards, other countries tend to really overcook their pasta.
@@PiattoRecipes hi thanks for the reply! It’s less of a texture thing and more about the taste. When i cook it much longer that raw dough taste goes away but i suppose i’m just not familiar with how fresh egg pasta is supposed to taste

Pasta BEGINNER? You'll also LOVE our step-by-step video for making pasta with a common pasta roller: czcams.com/video/oyv-u3u0slU/video.html
you know you're in the right place when you see an Italian grandma. i CAN'T wait to finally make my own. 😁
Said the same thing
What you waiting for? Just do it…
Pasta or an Italian grandma?
so did u make it 2 years later
Her hands are like my mother's. I miss her so much. Thanks for the video.
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Very sorry to hear your mother is no longer with you.
It's always a pleasure watching someone do something well.
If you want a long rolling pin like Lulu's. Don't spend a fortune, just buy a broom or mop handle from your local hardware shop , cut it to the size you want (You might even get two out of it)

Great tip!
Better yet, buy the larger wooden rod used for hanging clothes. No finish to worry about and it closer to the diameter they usually are.
Grandma Lulu is a true artist, that’s so impressive.
Nonna Lulu says thank you :)
Nona has those “I’ve been doing this by hand for decades” forearms 🤯 💪
Just beautiful! What a very, lovely lady! Thank you so much, dear Grandma.
Oh my goodness, THANK YOU!!!! This is the best teaching video I have ever found, what a blessing. Love from South Africa

Honey, go get a dowel from the hardware store. Like one for the closet. 36" is a good length.

Thank you very much. lt is very interesting...The best regards...
I’ve made this before
And I’ll do it again!
I rather learned from a real Italian woman like her than someone who doesn’t know what they are doing with fresh dough.
i used semolina flour and a little bit of water per another recipe but followed this method and they came out great!
This is good, but I also learnt a lot by applying some of the traditional techniques for hand rolling thin dough which Japanese use for Soba which is capable of making it not just thin but into a square shape
Excelente, que bella abuela, receta de oro. Dios te bendiga desde Costa Rica
Amazing.... Thanks for sharing the steps. 👍👍👍👍👍
I had my first try today at making soup noodles. They were good enough for soup at least. Hahaha
This is just beautiful 💎
Like watching my mother ❤

It is perfect grandma
Thank you for this lessons I adore it
This video was super informative! I used too much flour using another recipe. This one gives a lot of great advice. I'll try again!

Good job Grandma!
That was awesome!! She makes it look so easy :)

Wow!! Very simple and straight forward presentation 👌
Thank you, grandma! Those look amazing and I was looking for a way to get them thin, this is the way :D
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! Grandma Lulu loves them!
Thank you so much grandma❤This vedio really helps me In my module on how to make homemade pasta

@@PiattoRecipes I've just noticed nearly all the Pasta Grannies use unfinished boards....I make pasta a lot and wish I had one!
nice
Nice video! I'll try
Nice and good video to enjoy! :)
برافو
If you want a more rich in color pasta use pasteurized eggs it makes a great difference ❤️❤️
The part where she was rolling the dough reminded me of the Pacer test 💀
Naples Italy 🇮🇹
❤❤
Also nice asmr 😂
your very good ❤️❤️🌹👍🏻
Can I used the same Doug for other pasta such as ravioli?
Yes, you can! If you prefer a slightly more 'al dente' texture to your final cooked dough, this other recipe on our channel will deliver that: czcams.com/video/oyv-u3u0slU/video.html

At 9 minutes is that a serrated knife.
It would be good if you could explain any uncommon terms such as Tallitelli

Can a kitchen aid machine work as good?
You can use a stand mixer. Be sure to start by adding just 3/4 of flour recommended and add more slowly as needed till you reach the consistency shown. It’s easy to add more flour, but harder to correct a dough that is too dry :)
@@PiattoRecipes oh nice thanks so much Chief!
Did she put olive oil as well?
Lulu does sometimes add a drop of olive oil (no more than 1 teaspoon for pasta for 4).
@@PiattoRecipes Thank you!
Just curious can’t u not mix it in a bowl instead of me spilling all over the place lol
Great question! In fact, you can (see the spinach pasta in our lasagne bolognese video as an example). Just be sure to add just 3/4 of the flour called for to the bowl at first and only add more flour if needed.
@@PiattoRecipes thank you for your reply & great video btw.
I don't get it, my pasta always tastes raw still after cooking after a minute. It seems to be about the right thickness too.

That grandma is not allowed to do that. Cooking is only for men.
What?
