Steps:

• Prep: garlic. Skin the garlic the easy way. Place the cloves into a small jar and then shake the whole thing. After a couple of minutes, the skins will have been beaten off. Mince the peeled cloves, then place directly into a 3-quart pot.
• Prep: onions. Slice a small white onion in half lengthwise. remove skin, slice thinly followed by rough shopping. place directly into the pot.
• Prep: Spices. Mix Italian spices, brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, seasoning salt, and kosher salt in a small container.
• Place pot on stove over medium heat. Add the 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Stir occasionally, until onions soften and the garlic is fragrant.
• Drain the mushrooms directly into the pot of onions. Add the undrained ortega chiles. There will be a great amount of liquid. Continue cooking until all liquid is gone.
• Crumble the meat into the pot, stirring occasionally until red is gone.
• Add the spices, stir to cover.
• Add the diced tomatoes, stock, tomato paste, and mushrooms. Stir to mix. Make certain that the tomato paste is dissolved. Cook for 25 minutes, covered.
• While the sauce is cooking, start your pasta water. Fill your pasta pot 1/2 way with water, add kosher salt. Bring to a boil, about 15 minutes.
• Put egg noodles into boiling water. stir occasionally. Cook 10 minutes then drain. Turn off all burners.
• Pour pasta sauce into the drained egg noodles, mix well. Serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Trim the escarole and discard any bruised leaves. Cut off the stem ends. Seperate the leaves and wash well in cool water, especially the center of the leaves where soil collects. Stack the leaves and cut them crosswise into 1 inch strips. You should have about 4 cups.
• In a large pot, combine the escarole, broth, carrots. Bring to a simmer and cook until the escarole is almost tender, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix together the ingredients for the meatballs. Shape the mixture into tiny meatballs, less than 1 inch in diameter.
• When the escarole is cooked, stir in the pasta and return the soup to a simmer. Drop the meatballs into the soup. Cook over low heat, stirring gently, until the meatballs and pasta are cooked, about 20 minutes. Taste for seasoning. At this point I drizzle in one mixed egg and stir. It makes pretty egg flower strings throughout the soup.
• Top with grated Parmesan and serve hot.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet melt butter over medium heat; cook eggs sunny-side up (so that egg yolks are not broken). Sprinkle garlic powder, ground black pepper, onion and rosemary on eggs while cooking.
• Place hot pasta and cooked eggs on a plate and stir together; the broken yolks will create the sauce. Serve hot.

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse together flour and salt. Add eggs, yolks and oil and run the machine until the dough holds together. If dough looks dry, add another teaspoon olive oil. If dough looks wet, add a little flour until dough is tacky and elastic.
• Dump dough onto a work surface and knead briefly until very smooth. Wrap in plastic and rest at room temperature for 1 hour or in the fridge overnight. (If pressed for time, the dough can be used after a 30-minute rest; just note that it would be slightly harder to roll out.)
• Cut the dough into 4 pieces, keeping them covered with plastic wrap or a dish towel when not in use. (If you're rolling the dough out by hand, rather than using a pasta machine, cut it into 2 pieces instead.) Using a pasta roller set to the thickest (widest) setting, roll one piece of dough out into a sheet. Fold the sheet in thirds like a letter and pass it through the machine 2 more times on the same setting.
• Reduce the setting, and repeat rolling and folding the dough, passing it through the machine 2 or 3 times before going to the next setting. For pappardelle and fettuccine, stop rolling when the dough is about 1 or 2 settings wider than the thinnest one on your roller. For lasagna noodles, and for ravioli and other stuffed or filled pasta, go to the thinnest setting. (To roll dough by hand, see note below.)
• Shape the pasta. For pappardelle, cut rolled pasta into 1-inch-wide strips. For fettuccine, run the rolled sheets through the fettuccine setting on your roller. Place cut pasta on a flour-dusted sheet tray and cover with a dish towel while rolling and cutting the remaining dough. Make sure to sprinkle flour over the cut pasta before you place another layer on top. If not using immediately, cover the sheet pan with a dish towel to keep the dough supple.
• Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil, add fresh pasta and boil for 1 to 3 minutes, depending on thickness of the pasta. Drain well.

Steps:

• Pile flour onto a work surface and make a small well in the center; place eggs, egg yolks, olive oil, and salt into the well. Gently stir the egg mixture with a fork, gradually drawing in flour until dough comes together.
• Knead dough with hands until smooth and leathery, about 10 minutes.
• Wrap dough in plastic wrap; let rest until malleable, 1 to 2 hours. Remove plastic wrap.
• Cut dough into four pieces; roll out with a rolling pin. Run flattened pieces through a pasta roller to create desired noodle shape.

Steps:

• Cook pasta to al dente, according to package directions.
• Drain well.
• Add butter to pan, and allow to melt.
• Return drained pasta and mix well with butter.
• In a separate bowl, beat eggs well.
• Add the eggs to pan, and mix well.
• Return to med heat, and stir CONTINUOUSLY, scraping egg from bottom, until eggs are scrambled well and cling to pasta. This step goes very quickly, so watch pot closely.
• Serve immediately.
• To easily clean pan, rinse with COLD water. Empty pan of water, and add a generous portion of SALT, and a dot of dish detergent to pan. Scrub with a scrubbie under cold water until clean. Finish by running under hot water or place pan in dishwasher to disinfect.

Steps:

• Place flour on a marble or wooden work surface. Make a well in the center and crack in eggs; add salt. Gently beat eggs using a fork, incorporating the surrounding flour, until mixture is runny. Pull remaining flour into the center using a bench scraper, incorporating it until dough forms a ball.
• Knead dough with your hands by flattening the ball, stretching it, and folding the top towards the center. Turn 45 degrees and repeat until dough is soft and smooth, about 10 minutes.
• Shape dough into a ball. Place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Roll out the dough with a pasta machine or with a rolling pin and cut into your favorite pasta.
