In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and semolina flour (if using). Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Create a well in the center of the flour mixture and gradually pour in the water. Use a fork or your hands to mix the water into the flour until it forms a shaggy dough.
Transfer the dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface and knead it for 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Add a sprinkle of water if the dough feels too dry, or a little flour if it's sticky.
Wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 20-30 minutes. This helps relax the gluten and makes it easier to roll out.
After resting, divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Take one portion at a time (keeping the others covered to prevent drying out) and roll it out into a thin sheet using a rolling pin or pasta machine.
Use a knife or pasta cutter to cut the rolled-out dough into your desired shape, such as fettuccine, tagliatelle, or spaghetti. Dust the cut pasta with a small amount of flour to prevent sticking.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fresh pasta and cook for 2-4 minutes, depending on the thickness of your pasta. Taste test for doneness.
Drain the pasta and serve immediately with your favorite sauce or seasoning. Enjoy your fresh, fat-free homemade pasta!
