• Remove dough from food processor and knead it with your hands for a minute.
• Form it back into a ball. Wrap with plastic wrap and let it rest for 20 - 30 minutes.
• Place dough on a lightly-floured surface and divide into four equal balls. Keep unused dough wrapped in plastic while you work, to prevent it from drying up.
• Lightly flour one of the dough balls and form into a disc.
• Feed it through a pasta machine roller set at the thickest setting (No. 1); repeat.
• Fold the dough strip into thirds or quarters to create a square.
• Feed the dough strip through the pasta machine six times, flouring as needed and decreasing thickness by one setting each time, ending at number 5 or 6, depending on the thickness desired.
• Cut dough into 13 inch long strips while soft.
• Dry strips on a rack or on a board for at least 15 minutes.
• Repeat with remaining 3 balls of dough.
