This pasta dough can be made in a mixing bowl, kitchen aide mixer or food processor. Start by placing the flours, salt and parmesan in the bowl, stir to mix ingredients. In a small bowl whisk the egg and olive oil, then add to the dry ingredients and mix. If the dough seems dry you may add water one tablespoon at a time. Keep in mind that your are creating a firm pasta dough. If the dough is to soft you will not be able to grate it.

No matter wether I use a kitchen aid mixer, or food processor, or start with a simple mixing bowl I always finish the hand kneading on a wood pasta board. Just my personal preference of touching and feeling the dough to know that its exactly the right consistency for what I am wanting to make.

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour. You may also placce it in the freezer for 30 minutes. Using a box grater, grate the ball of dough, you will create little pieces of pasta. Carefully scatter them or with a bench scraper place them on a sheet pan. Allow the pasta to dry before cooking.

This type of pasta is best cooked in a broth and served in a soup. This is my go to feel good comfort food when I am feeling under the weather.
