1. First, mix everything together. This takes literally two minutes and almost no effort. Add flours to the bowl of a mixer, hook on the paddle attachment, and turn your mixer to low speed. Slowly pour in the eggs and beat until crumbly, adding a little water if you need to (wetter pasta dough is easier to work with than dry dough). If you don't have a mixer, you can mix the dough in a large bowl, using a fork to start combining the flour and eggs. Finish the dough by mixing with your hands once the mixture is too clumpy for the fork.
2. Sprinkle a thin layer of flour on the counter. Turn the dough onto the counter and knead by hand until it just comes together and begins to smooth out, about 2 minutes. Kneading the dough is almost as easy as mixing it. Squish, roll, repeat. The dough will not be perfectly smooth - that's normal.
3. Form the dough into a flat disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and set it in the refrigerator for 2 hours so that the gluten can relax.
4. Once it has rested, flatten the disk with your hands so that it is 1-inch thick and sprinkle with a little flour on both sides. Run the dough through the pasta machine with the flat rollers set to their most open setting; fold the dough sheet into thirds, like a letter, and roll it back through the pasta maker again. If the dough sticks, coat with a little more flour. Fold and roll the dough three more times on this setting, which kneads it to produce a silky texture.
