Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will prepare it for baking if you choose to make baked pasta dishes later.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the cheese is fully melted and smooth.
- Once the mozzarella is melted, add the room temperature egg yolks to the cheese. Mix well until the ingredients are fully combined and form a dough-like consistency.
- Transfer the dough onto a clean surface sprinkled with a bit of almond flour (to prevent sticking). Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to your desired thickness, typically about 1/8 inch thick.
- Using a sharp knife or pasta cutter, cut the rolled-out dough into your desired pasta shapes. You can create fettuccine, lasagna sheets, or even ravioli!
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add the cut pasta and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until it floats to the surface. Drain and rinse under cool water before serving.
Notes
- Use room temperature egg yolks for a smoother dough.
- Don’t overcook the pasta to avoid mushiness.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
- This pasta pairs beautifully with creamy sauces, pesto, or hearty marinara.
