Client Reviews

I have had every kind of pasta roller - the chrome manual kind, the a single that does anything (mixes, extrudes) and now this. I Enjoy it. I adore getting my hands no cost to hold the dough going in and coming out and not having the manual roller shift all over the spot. I am amazed how thin I can make the dough - tissue paper-thin. My only complaint, and I make it for the sake of completeness, is the fact that it took Several batches of dough (the very first of which I was willing to sacrifice) to "clean" it out. I noticed what looked like metallic deposits all over my dough, specifically on the edges. This was highly distressing to me. I tried wiping the roller with a towel (for about an hour), I tried rubbing it with olive oil and I tried dusting it with flour, all of which helped, but it was ridiculous how substantially time I had to devote and how countless batches of dough I had to waste (about 4)! Overall, on the other hand, I am incredibly pleased, but I assume they will need to include in the instructions a statement to the effect that you should expect to see the deposits and how to clean it, or they will need to make certain it is cleaner ahead of sending it out!

I decided to purchase this attachment as an alternative of the other Kitchenaid pasta attachment (plates + food grinder) considering I wanted to be able to make any sort of pasta: spinach, semolina, entire wheat, egg-cost-free and so on, and not be confined to a modest number of recipes that had been confident to work nicely with the plates. It has worked like a charm. Even the egg-absolutely free spinach pasta, which was particularly dry and crumbly to start out, came out ideal.
The widest setting on the roller works to knead/roll the dough till its pliable adequate to continue. Its remarkable how such flaky dough can grow to be so evenly mixed with minimal work. From this point, its just a few alot more settings till you have got angel-hair thin dough. It is essential to use the cutter just before the ends of your dough dry out, lest they will clog the cutter.
Pasta is my favorite food, and this contraption tends to make it achievable to make my own wholesome, delicious pasta recipes at property, fast!
