When making pasta, give it a rest! One thing that we find students often overlook is the need to let your pasta dough rest! When you start making any pasta it is important to properly knead your dough to develop enough gluten to hold the dough together. Just as important is letting that gluten have time to relax and chill out before stretching and rolling it out. We recommend at least 30 min. but for harder doughs it could take longer.
