Olive oil lends great flavor to pasta, but it makes the dough brittle and prone to cracking if it dries. It’s best not to use olive oil if you are shaping the dough into tortellini or ravioli.
If you want to add olive oil for flavor, you can add just a little—about 1 teaspoon per cup of flour is a good ratio.
