Directions:

1

Put the flour on a worktable

2

Make a well in the center of the flour and add the tomatoes, egg, and salt

3

Combine together and knead until the mixture becomes an even dough

4

If the mixture becomes too wet, add more flour, if it becomes too dry, add more tomato juice

5

Sprinkle the work surface with a little flour

6

Cut a quarter of the dough and roll the dough flat

7

Cut the dough into strips 1/2-inch wide and then each strip about 2 to 3-inches long

8

Using your thumb and index finger, gently pinch the width of the dough strip, and then roll out

9

Repeat the above process until all the dough is used up

10

Cover up any excess dough with a cloth to prevent it from drying, if you are not using it immediately

11

Put the dough-strips on a lightly floured board and then add to a pot of boiling salted water

12

Stir to prevent the pasta from sticking together and drain when the pasta floats to the surface, 2 to 3 minutes

To make the sauce: Add the olive oil, chopped rosemary, and Parmigiano cheese to a cold saucepan
