Pici
- 2 cups semolina flour
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 to 1 1/4 cups tepid water
- Place both types of flour in a large mixing bowl and stir to mix well.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the water a little at a time, stirring with your hands until a dough is formed.
- You may need more or less water, depending on the humidity in your kitchen.
- Place the dough on a floured work surface and knead it like bread until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Cover the dough and let it stand for 10 minutes at room temperature.
- Roll the dough into long dowels about 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick.
- Place the pasta strands between 2 hands and lightly roll back and forth to create a lightly spiraled, snake-like noodle.
- Place the pici on a sheet tray that has been dusted with semolina flour, cover the pasta with a clean dish towel, and set aside until ready to use.
- At this point, the pasta can be frozen for several months.
