Frequently Asked Questions

Why 100 g of flour per person?

It is a practical rule of thumb for egg pasta: about one large egg per 100 g of 00 flour balances moisture and structure for rolling. Adjust if your eggs run small or you want a drier dough.

Do I need water or olive oil?

Many recipes add a splash of water or a little oil if the dough feels dry. This calculator only sizes flour and eggs so you can follow your preferred finishing steps.

Is semolina included?

This tool assumes all-purpose or 00 flour for rolled sheets. If you blend semolina, reduce total flour or follow a recipe that gives the split.
