Homemade Macaroni Stars ⭐️ (Collaboration)


My kids loves macaroni! 😄😄 Whose also? 🙋ðŸŧ‍♀️ðŸĪŠ

First try on making macaroni at home using San Remo Durum Wheat Semolina Flour 😁😁 Making these for a little toddler girl (nephew’s daughter) for her to try as her mummy hopes to feed her homemade macaroni instead of store-bought ones. Using a small star cutter to make these tiny star macaroni which saves time on shaping them! ☺️ hope little girl will like them! My kids were my taster and made simple Mac n cheese with these stars and they loves it!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of San Remo Durum Wheat Semolina Flour 
  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour (and some extra flour for dusting) 
  • 1/4 tsp of salt 
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten 
  • 1 tbsp olive oil 

Method:

  1. Combine sifted salt, semolina and all-purpose flour together in a large bowl. Use a fork to mix till it’s well combined.  
  2. Create a well in the centre if the flour mixture. 
  3. Pour beaten eggs and olive oil in the centre of flour mixture. Use the fork to whisk the egg mixture and slowly draw the flour and mix together with the eggs. Mixture will be thin at first but it will slowly thicken and begin to look like dough. Once it begins to look like a soft dough, transfer the dough on a clean surface, dusted with flour. 
  4. Begin kneading the dough by folding it onto itself. Lift one side of the dough and fold towards the opposite side. After each fold, flatten the dough and repeat. This process will toughen up the dough. Sprinkle extra flour on the counter if the dough begins to stick to the surface. Continue to knead till the surface is smooth and resembles a plastic ball. 
  5. Place dough in a clean bowl to rest. Cover the top of bowl with plastic wrap or plate. Allow it to rest for 30minutes. After it has rested, you can use the dough straightaway or refrigerate it for 24 hours. Allow the dough to come to room temperature before forming pasta. 
  6. You can shape the dough into any shape or sizes you like. I used a mini star cutter to make the shape as it is faster this way. Roll flat and thin for half of the dough flat on clean, dusted surface. Cut out the shapes using cutters. Cook macaroni in a pot of salted boiling water for about 8-10 minutes or till it is cooked. Serve macaroni with soup, pasta sauce, carbonara or mixed with cheese and baked in airfryer or oven till cheese melted.
