In this article, we share not only the benefits of using a spiral mixer for pasta dough but also present a simple recipe that will allow you to create your own fresh pasta in no time.
The Benefits of Spiral Mixing for Pasta Dough
The consistent and powerful kneading motion of spiral mixing is ideal for making pasta dough. It enables perfect mixing of ingredients and ensures the dough reaches the desired consistency—elastic, smooth, and easy to roll out. The spiral mixer takes away the tedious manual labor and lets you focus on what matters most: enjoying fresh, homemade pasta.
Recipe: Basic Dough for Homemade Pasta
Ingredients:
300 g durum wheat semolina
200 g wheat flour (type 00)
4 eggs, size M
A pinch of salt
Preparation:
1. Preparation: Make sure the spiral dough mixer is clean and dry. Prepare all ingredients.
2. Mixing the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the durum wheat semolina and wheat flour. Add a pinch of salt and mix the dry ingredients well.
3. Adding the eggs: Create a well in the center of the flour mixture and crack the eggs into it. Using a spoon or your hands, begin to gently combine the eggs with the flour.
4. Kneading in the spiral mixer: Use the spiral mixer to knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until a homogeneous, elastic mass is formed.
5. Let it rest: Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes. This allows the dough to relax and develop its gluten-friendly texture.
6. Rolling out and shaping: After resting, you can roll out the dough using a pasta machine or rolling pin and shape it into the desired pasta form as you like.
7. Cooking: Cook the fresh pasta in plenty of salted water for 2-4 minutes, until al dente.
