4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt
4 eggs
6 tsp. cold water (approximately)

Sift together flour and salt into a large bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour, one at a time. Add 1 egg, mixing slightly after each additional egg. Gradually add water a tablespoon at a time. Mix well to make a stiff dough. Turn dough onto a well-floured clean surface. Knead well. Proceed and roll out or cut for pasta recipe.
