I made pasta dough according to a famous chef's cookbook recipe. Unfortunately, I was new to the method and overworked the dough apparently. It was tight and tough. In those days I didn't know that you should let it rest and allow the gluten to relax. Those were tough, thick noodles, I can tell you!
