• Set aside a bowl with tapioca starch to use for sprinkling when the dough is sticky.
• Measure dry ingredients in food processor or electric mixer.
• Turn on to briefly combine. Add boiled water with motor running and mix until combined.
• Add egg and continue mixing until smooth dough is formed.
• Turn dough onto counter and lightly sprinkle with tapioca starch. Cut into 4 pieces. Work with one piece at a time keeping the remaining pieces of dough covered with a dry cloth.

ROLLING PASTA WITH A HAND-CRANK MACHINE

• Set pasta machine to its' widest setting.
• Flatten one piece of pasta dough with your hands or a rolling pin. Feed the flattened dough through the roller as you turn the crank.
• Place the dough lengthwise in front of you. Fold each side over in thirds. Repeat the process 3-4 times until the dough is smooth and the width of the pasta roller. This is the important step where you are trying to make a single piece of smooth dough with even edges that are the width of your machine. Keep rolling it until you have fairly smooth edges, even if it takes 10 times.
• Adjust the pasta roller to the next setting and feed the dough through again. Repeat this process, adjusting the roller to a narrower setting each time until you reach the desired thickness for your pasta.*
• When a piece is too long to manage, lay it on the counter and cut it in half.
• Once your pasta is the desired thickness it can be cut into any shape. Repeat this process with the remaining portions of dough. Shape as desired.
• Many hand-crank machines have a setting for fettuccini so that's a great place to start.
• As each piece of pasta is cut into fettuccini carefully twist and twirl into a loose nest. Lay on a baking sheet to dry slightly as you repeat the process with each piece of dough.
• If not using within 30 minutes cover and refrigerate. Cook within 3 days.

COOKING FRESH GLUTEN FREE PASTA

• Cook fresh pasta in plenty of boiling water for 3-5 minutes depending on the thickness. **
• Start checking the pasta after the first few minutes to avoid over cooking. Keep notes so you can perfect the thickness and cooking time for perfect pasta every time.
• Drain, rinse briefly to stop cooking process. Toss with hot pasta sauce and serve immediately.
