How to Make Spinach Pasta

This looks like a lot of instructions, but it is actually pretty simple. I love how quickly I was able to make my own home spinach linguine!

1. Follow your pasta machine instructions for making pasta and select either pasta or quick pasta, I chose quick pasta for this recipe.
2. Make sure your machine is properly assembled and you select your linguine shaping disc and then twist on the collar to hold it in place.
3. Combine your fresh and raw spinach and a little bit of water in your blender and blend until completely smooth, set to the side.
4. After that, add the flour and salt to the bin and clip in the lid.
5. Turn on the pasta maker and select quick pasta, the machine will take care of the rest of the steps for you by automatically starting to knead and then switching to extruding the pasta and turning off.
6. Once your flour is in, the machine will let you know exactly how much liquid to add, start by adding the spinach puree. Then slowly add the water while the machine is kneading the dough. (Adding the water after the spinach will help wash the spinach puree through the openings, using a small spatula will help too).
7. It will automatically start to extrude the pasta once it is done kneading, the first inch or so of pasta might be a little bit floury still so simply cut off and set aside.
8. Next, choose a length for your pasta and try to cut similarly sized sets of pasta for even cooking time.
9. Once all of the pasta is made, turn off the pasta maker and let the parts air dry to harden the leftover pasta dough, it will be easier to clean this way.
10. Cook the pasta in boiling water for a few minutes until it floats (about 4 minutes but different flours and temperature can play a role in cook time so test a piece first.
