- 4 large Egg

Notes
If you find that your dough is too dry and stiff, add a tablespoon or two of water. Alternately, some people may prefer the texture of adding an extra egg. If the dough is too wet, sprinkle in additional flour a bit at a time until the dough is no longer sticky. Adding it incrementally helps to avoid drying out the dough.
