Servings: 4
Ingredients:
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 eggs
3 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
extra olive oil, in case the dough is too dry
3 3/4 cup flour
1/3 cup fresh basil, chopped, plus extra for garnish
1 cup fresh mozzarella (I like to use the little mozzarella pearls, but you could also dice up a large ball of fresh mozz!)
1/2 cup red wine (I used a cabernet sauvignon)
salt and pepper to taste
25 good-sized fresh strawberries
red wine and balsamic reduction (put 1/2 cup red wine and 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar in small saucepan and simmer until it reduces to a thick syrup)
2 large tomatoes, diced (I used some beautiful yellow heirloom tomatoes…yummmm)
Equipment:
baking sheet
food processor
oven
knife
sauce pan
Cooking instruction summary:
Hull the strawberries and slice them lengthwise. Spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle berries with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast berries at 350 for 30 minutes, until you start to smell their sweetness and they’ve released some of their juices. Remove from the oven and let cool for thirty minutes.Toss roasted strawberries into a food processor with salt, pepper, and the flour. Pulse to combine, until the strawberries have been obliterated and the flour has turned a nice shade of pink.Add eggs one at a time and pulse to combine in between each addition. Turn the processor off and test the mixture – it should hold together when you pinch it and be damp (but not sticky) to the touch. If it’s too mealy, stream in more olive oil a teaspoon or so at a time (with the processor running) until the dough reaches the desired consistency. If it doesn’t come all the way together in a ball in the food processor, that’s ok! Just knead it together with your hands on a floured surface.When the dough is ready, cut it into palm-sized portions and run it through a pasta roller (you can also roll it by hand, but I love love love my electric pasta rollers). I rolled mine fairly thick – a #3 on my roller.Once your pasta is rolled into sheets, run it through a fettuccine attachment on your pasta roller (or, cut it into strips by hand with a sharp knife!)Use the pasta immediately or store in the fridge for up to a week. It also freezes really well if you want to save it for a later date!Combine wine and balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Simmer over medium heat until liquid has reduced to a thick, syrupy consistency (10-20 minutes, depending on the depth of your saucepan). I like to do this while the pasta cooks.Cook the fettuccine in very salty boiling water for 6-8 minutes until it has puffed up slightly and is cooked through.Drain pasta and toss with olive oil, basil, tomatoes, salt and pepper.Drizzle red wine and balsamic reduction over pasta and garnish with extra basil. Serve immediately.
