Homemade Spinach Pasta

Combine water and ice in a bowl.

Preheat a skillet over medium heat; add spinach.

Cook, stirring continuously, until spinach turns bright green, about 30 seconds.

Plunge into ice water bath; remove when spinach is lukewarm.

Squeeze out excess moisture with cheese cloth.

Combine spinach, eggs, olive oil, and salt in a food processor; blend until smooth.

Add flour; blend until dough no longer sticks to the blades, adding flour as needed.

Roll dough into a ball; wrap in plastic wrap.

Rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.

Remove plastic wrap from dough.

Transfer to a work surface generously dusted with flour; cut dough into 4 pieces with a sharp knife.

Roll out dough with a rolling pin to 1/4-inch thickness; shape into rectangles.

Dust pasta maker rollers with flour.

Run the dough rectangles through a pasta maker on the widest setting.

Repeat rolling dough through rollers, gradually reducing the setting to desired thickness.

Change pasta maker's attachment to preferred noodle shape; cut pasta with pasta maker.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

Lower pasta gently into water; use a spoon to keep noodles from sticking together.

Cook until pasta is firm but soft, 3 to 6 minutes.

Remove from the water with tongs; transfer to a bowl.
