Tagliolini Limone
For the fresh egg pasta:
200 grams all purpose flour
2 large, whole eggs, lightly beaten
zest of one lemon
1 tsp finely chopped parsley
pinch of ground black pepper
Place flour, lemon zest, black pepper and parsley into a mixing bowl (should use dough mixer/mixing machine for this). Add eggs and knead until dough forms.
Form dough into a smooth ball, cover with plastic wrap, let rest for minimum half hour.
Flatten “tagliolini” (pasta) with a rolling pin or pasta machine. Use extra flour so the pasta does not stick together.
Cut flattened pasta into manageable pieces (approx. 6-inch x 12-inch). Roll cut pieces, and slice to desired thickness (usually about 1/8-inch).
Separate by hand, sprinkle with semolina flour or all purpose flour

2.5 oz. fresh peas
1 tbsp white wine
10 basil leaves
7 ounces chopped asparagus
6 shrimp, deveined and peeled

200 ml extra virgin olive oil

1 oz white onion, finely chopped
2 tbsp of mascarpone
Saute onion, chopped garlic and basil leaves.
Add asparagus and peas and sauté for 1 minute.
Add shrimp and scallops, splash with white wine.
Add water from boiling pot of water (for pasta) to create the proper consistency of the sauce.
