Now, We Made “la pasta” at Home
Using a manually operated Italian made roller system, we rolled the pasta segments into a thin noodle strips.
Once the pasta is thin enough, the strips can be rolled through the cutter system coming up with the finished noodle strands.
And we now have a really delicious pasta dish. The picture does not exhibit the true taste of the noodles which were absolutely delicious.
