If using homemade pasta, roll pasta to the #5 (of 8) setting on kitchen aid pasta machine. Don't let your pasta sheets dry, like you do when you make fettuccine or spaghetti - you want them a bit sticky. Use them right away.
*Homemade pasta: 2.5 cups Flour, 3 eggs (+ water as needed to equal ¾ cup), ½ tsp salt (optional)
