Instructions

In a mixing bowl, mound the flour and make a well in the center. Crack the eggs into the well.
Gradually incorporate the flour into the eggs using fingers or a fork until combined.
Transfer to a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for at least 30 minutes.
Divide dough into portions, flatten slightly, and roll through a pasta roller, gradually reducing thickness.
Cut rolled dough into desired shapes (like fettuccine or lasagna) and dust with flour to prevent sticking.
Boil salted water, add pasta, and cook for about 4 minutes or until al dente. Drain and serve with your favorite sauce.
