Instructions

1. Sift the flour onto your work surface, add the salt, and mix well.
   
2. Make a well in the flour and start kneading, gradually adding enough water.
   
3. Knead for about 10-15 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and homogeneous. If it’s too dry, you can add a bit more water.
   
4. Shape the dough into a ball, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
   
5. Now proceed with shaping the pasta.
   
6. You can make cicatelli: take small portions of the dough and roll them into tubes about 5-7 mm thick. Cut the tubes into 4 cm pieces and, with the help of your fingers, gently drag them towards you to create a hollow, rolled shape. Dust your cicatelli with semolina to prevent them from sticking together.
   
7. Cook the pasta in salted boiling water (it will take 5-10 minutes, depending on the thickness).
