Take 235g of semolina flour. Top off with type00 to ~300 grams. Put that in your kitchenaid mixer bowl, make a well in the middle and crack in 3 eggs. Attach dough-hook and mix for about 5 minutes, should be one mass by about this time. Pull it out and kneed it for 5-10 minutes; should be a silly-putty like texture.
Grab a scotch, you've earned it, kneeding dough is why little grannies can lift cars.
Place dough under a bowl and let it sit while you drink your scotch, 20-30 minutes. Attach your pasta press attachment (spaghetti plate) and start running slightly larger than quarter size balls of dough through it; you'll want the dough to be just barely out of sight when you add new dough to the press. Cut strands into a bowl (I have one of the smaller kitchenaids so I prop it up on a box or over the counter if I can distract the cats); bowl should have a light dusting of flour in it - gently toss the spaghetti in the flour and dry on a rack or parchment paper. I usually let it rest for about 30 minutes before cooking; feel free to dry overnight and then put into a ziplock and into your fridge (keeps about a week).
All in, takes maybe an hour once you start getting it down. Your friends will be amazed that you can whip up fresh pasta like this, but its actually pretty easy. Sauce is a completely different story and a completely different set of skills. Even something from a jar will taste better over pasta you just made yourself.
