This unique pasta dough incorporates leek ash, which adds a slight sweet and smoky flavor. It involves baking leeks until charred, blending them into a powder, and then mixing them with flour and eggs to form the dough.
1: Preheat oven to 350F.
2: Spread the leeks onto a baking sheet and bake them in the oven for 7 minutes or until they are charred.
3: Transfer the leeks into a blender and blend to create a powder.
4: Create a well with the flour, add eggs and leek ash.
5: Whisk the eggs and leeks into the flour and then knead by hand for 10 minutes.
6: Cover with plastic wrap for 30 minutes before using.
