How to make lasagna sheets at home

Take 600 grams of flour and sift through a fine sieve. This will not only get rid of unnecessary impurities and lumps, but also saturate the flour with oxygen, which will make the dough airy. Place a handful of sifted flour on the table and make a hole in the middle.

Drive 3 eggs into the hole and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Knead the dough gradually. It should be steep and resilient – when pressed, the trail should disappear. If the dough is too thick, wet your hands with water and continue kneading. Cover the resulting dough with a pad to keep it dry and leave to rest for half an hour.

Divide the dough into several pieces. Pour some flour on the table and roll each piece successively into a sheet 1-1,5 mm thick. Cut the finished sheet into rectangles or squares of the desired size. Typically, a baking dish is taken as a sample.

Spread the sheets out on horizontal surfaces to dry. The sheets should not dry out, otherwise they will begin to crumble. Store ready-made lasagna sheets in a sealed container.
