Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups double-zero flour plus extra for dusting
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3-4 large yolks
  • Water as needed
  • Salt for boiling water

Instructions
 

  • On a clean surface, make a well in the center of the flour. Crack the eggs into the well and add 3 yolks. Gradually incorporate the flour into the eggs using a fork, blending until combined. If dry, add a 4th yolk.

  • Knead the dough for about 5-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic. If the dough is too dry, add a few drops of water at a time (up to 2 tablespoons) until there are no loose crumbs. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.

  • Place a square on a garganelli board or a ridged surface. Place a dowel at one end of the square and roll tightly to form a tube, pressing to seal the edges.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the garganelli for 3 minutes or until al dente, depending on its thickness. Drain and serve with your favorite sauce.
