Fresh Beet Penne

Instructions

1. Fit the pasta machine with the penne nozzle.
2. In the bowl of the pasta machine, place the semolina and salt. Close the lid. In a small bowl, beat the eggs. Place the eggs in the pouring container and add enough beet juice to get a total 200 ml of liquid. Select the Pasta function. Pour the egg and beet mixture through the opening in the lid.
3. Sprinkle a baking sheet with semolina. Place in front of the nozzle of the pasta machine.
4. Cut the pasta as it comes through the nozzle into pieces 1 inch (2.5 cm) long. It is possible that the first batch of noodles is not the desired texture; if this is the case, cut the noodles as they come out and return them to the bowl of the pasta machine. The next batch of noodles should have a smoother texture. Coat the noodles with semolina.
5. Shake the pasta to remove any excess semolina. The noodles are now ready to be cooked.
