Just use any recipe for pasta dough, roll out with a roller as if you were making a pie crust, then roll up the sheet (like a jelly roll) and start slicing off the pasta to whatever thickness you want. Pasta made this way tends not to be as uniform in shape as with a machine, but tastes just as good. As with machine-made pasta, you need to flour liberally to prevent the dough from sticking. The whole process is very quick. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen <jgoerzen@complete.org> of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
