Directions
Mix flour, poppy seeds, herb and ½ teaspoon salt.
Make a well in center of flour mixture.
Mix in eggs, ¼ cup water and the oil thoroughly. (If dough is too dry, mix in a few drops of water. If dough is too sticky, mix in small amount of flour.)
Gather dough into ball. Knead on floured surface about 5 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
Divide dough into 4 equal parts.
Roll one part at a time into paper-thin rectangle on generously floured surface (keep remaining dough covered).
Loosely fold rectangle lengthwise into thirds.
Heat 4½ quarts water to boiling. Stir in ¼ teaspoon salt and the pasta.
Cook 3 to 5 minutes or until almost tender; drain.
