Instructions
 

  • Divide your Semolina Pasta Dough into quarters and work with one portion at a time, leaving the rest covered to keep it from drying out.
  • On a clean, un-floured work surface, roll the dough into a rope about ⅓-inch (1 cm) thick. Cut the rope into ½-inch (1½ cm) rectangles.
  • Place a piece of dough on a ridged gnocchi board. With the side of your thumb, push the dough into the board and away from you at the same time so that it curls around your thumb.
  • Knock the shaped dough off the board and continue with the remaining pieces. If the dough begins to stick you can use a touch of flour on the board.
  • Transfer each piece to a baking tray dusted with semolina to let dry as you continue to shape the rest of the dough.
  • Allow the dough to dry in a single layer on the baking tray for several hours to dry before cooking or transferring to an airtight container to be stored at room temperature for up to 8 weeks.
  • When ready to cook, bring a pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and cook until tender and fully cooked through, about 6-10 minutes. Cook time depends on thickness and shape so check for doneness before removing from the pot.
