To make
the dough by hand using the "Well Method", mix flour and
semolina together and make a well in the mixture on a
clean, flat surface. Break the eggs into the well and
add the salt and oil. Working with a fork, begin
incorporating flour into the eggs at the center. You may
need to shore up the flour walls as you work, pushing
more flour toward the middle, and keeping the eggs from
running out. When it becomes too difficult to keep
mixing with the fork, start using your hands. Before
long you’ll have a workable dough, which should be
kneaded for several minutes. Because of variations in
humidity and flour, you may need more or less flour, but
the goal at the end of the kneading is to have a
well-formed, elastic dough. |
