3 Whole large eggs
1 Egg yolk
Large pinch of salt
Method
- Place your flour and salt mixture on a flat working surface.
- Make a well in the center and pour in your eggs.
- Working fast, incorporate your egg mixture into your flour.
- Work into a dough and knead well until very smooth.
- Once you have reached the correct consistency, flatten, wrap and rest dough.
