Once the had become pretty incorporated, dump the fork, and do the rest of the pixing with your hands.
If it is too stick, add bits of flour. If it is too dry and sprinkles of water.
You want to fold this together till there is no stick and the dough had a bouncy feeling.
Roll this out, and cut it up. Pasta maker, rolling pin, wine bottle...they all work. Make it as thin as you can...and go crazy with your imagination!

Took me a while to get the consistency right, and even with all my weight behind the rollers, the noodles were pretty thick. That said, however, it was really tasty. I can see adding herbs, or other additions to jazz it up! Thanks for posting it!! - 8/26/10

Hey, I'm glad you tried it! The first few times out it is a little odd, and I ended up with a pasta maker helping make the pasta thinner, love it! Whipping up pasta only takes a few minutes now. I'm only buy store bought for an odd shape pasta now...one I'm not going to aim to make.
