pasta fatta in casa

Homemade pasta is an ancient tradition of the oldest Italian families. It is widespread in the south of the country, but it is also widely used in the most distinctive restaurants in northern Italy. I've got some relatives in the south, so I've got a lot of memories doing homemade pasta with my granparents and my family. I remeber my granma preparing the dough with flour, water, salt and eggs. Then my father used to roll out the dough with a tool and then we all started making pasta with our hands. Once it was done, my mother used to cook it and serve it with homemade tomato soup.
