Recipes Cuisine European Italian A Farewell to Basil Fettuccine 4.8 (51) 44 Reviews 11 Photos I made this basil fettuccine while watching "A Farewell to Arms" on TV and realized the title suited the intent of the pasta, which was to celebrate the last gleanings from my rather prolific basil patch. If you feel the need to serve this with a sauce, consider a butter garlic sauce or a white wine sauce with chicken. Whatever you choose to accompany this with, enjoy it!

Add 1 1/2 cups flour and pulse two or three times, or until combined. Mix in egg and oil. Add water until dough forms a ball shape. If dough seems dry, add a bit more water. Wrap dough in a piece of plastic wrap which has been coated in a few drops of olive oil. Refrigerate for 2 hours. Remove dough from the refrigerator and cut into 6 equal size portions. Run pasta though a pasta machine or roll with a rolling pin to desired thickness. Use additional flour to coat pasta while rolling. Once dough is desired thickness, run through the machine on the fettuccine setting to create noodles. Allow pasta to dry for 1 hour prior to cooking. Cook in a large pot of boiling water until al dente, 3 to 5 minutes depending on the thickness of the pasta.
