Hot Tips

Fresh pasta

Fresh pasta shouldn't be cooked to the 'al dente' stage. As it is egg based, it needs to be well cooked and not have any resistance when you bite into it but be silky smooth.

Glossary

Gluten

A protein in flour which, when mixed with water, gives the dough elasticity and strength.
