Sunfire asked what brand of pasta machine I bought. It's an Imperia brand; I picked it up at the Italian deli (Valoroso Foods) just up the street from us. It comes with the fettucine and tagliatelle cutters and the shop also carries the other cutters for it. I'm considering investing in one or two of them sometime down the road.
I saw the pasta maker that was on sale in London Drugs last month; I picked it up and felt how light it was and knew that it couldn't have been of reasonable quality. I was right. This one is heavy for it's size, comparatively. It certainly isn't the top of the pasta machine lines, but all the research I've done says it's a good brand, reasonably priced (I paid $60.00 cdn) and a good value. I'm really happy with it.
Roslyn, I've bookmarked the recipe you recommended and will be trying it soon. It sounds (looks) yummy. Thank you!
And Gail? Just for you...
And, for those of you who don't know me in person, those curls are natural. Don't hate me, k?

ReplyDeleteThat recipe makes a lot, be warned.
ReplyDeleteWe have a pasta maker - we bought it from Michaels and we use it for Sculpey clay!!! Probably shouldn't use it for food now :)
ReplyDeleteI figured out a long time ago you had great hair. I still love you anyhow.
ReplyDeleteNice cut you sexy lady you!!
ReplyDeleteI won't hate you, but I am jealous! hahaha You look great!
ReplyDeleteGreat haircut, brings out your lovely curls nicely. Good you like it! When I went to get my hair cut the last time I said: same as they are, just about an inch and a half shorter, got off my glasses, and when I put them on again - argh… It is good it is summer, so I don’t mind having shorter hair, and with the wind we have right now often there’s nothing in front of my eyes all the time. Others like it or think it’s not too bad. But it is just not what I like to see when I look into the mirror. At least they grow back.
