6. Cut dough into fourths and roll out as flat as you can.
7. Cook 2-3 minute again
7. Then, you can cut into any shape you want. I often make strips and make a fettuccine type pasta
8. Cut diagonally using a sharp knife because I can never cut the strips thin enough.
*You can also fill the little pockets with cooked vegetables, cooked pumpkin or tin tuna to make
a ravioli. But in making a ravioli, I have found making an egg wash (1 part egg to 1 part water)
around edges of pasta makes it stick together.
8. Once you cut the pasta, be liberal with flour or the noodles will stick together and make a big
blob again. Since these are fresh noodles they wont take long to cook. Once they float to the top
(or ~2-3 min) they will be cooked and ready for your enjoyment.
