Sombrero pasta
....
Preparation steps
- Place the flour in the pile on a work board, add the egg, oil, salt one by one in the middle and slowly begin to unite the flour with the eggs with a fork. When you have combined the flour with the eggs with a fork, start kneading with your hands.
- If the dough is too hard add a few tablespoons of cold water. Knead until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. Put the dough on a plate and cover it with a bowl and leave it to rest for half an hour.
- After half an hour, start rolling out the dough from the middle outwards until you get a thin dough but a little thicker than for tagliatelle. Sprinkle with flour often.
- Use a 7 cm wide kitchen ring or water cup to remove the dough circles. Place the resulting circles under a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.
- Take out three circles under the cloth, then cut them in half and make sombreros by transferring the corners of the dough to each other and carefully gluing them together.
