HOW TO MAKE FRESH PASTA

1.Machine off, lid open. Fill a standard glass measuring cup with 2 cups of flour or use a dry measuring cup with handle, or use liquid measuring cup which may be included, up to the 1 cup flour line. Always use 2 cups of flour. Pour into mixing bin. Close mixing bin lid.

2.Select Pasta Shaping die you want to use. Place in hot water for one minute.

3.Put the heated die on the front of the machine and secure it with the locking ring.

4.In the round measuring cup that comes with your Pasta/ Sausage Maker, pour 2 tbsp. of olive oil to the “Oil” line. Then, add 1 large egg (optional) to the olive oil already in the round measuring cup, put lid on cup tightly and shake vigorously for 5 seconds or use a fork to blend olive oil & egg together. Then add water for plain pasta or use strained vegetable juice of your choice (tomato, carrot, beet, or spinach) instead for delicious colored and flavored pasta. Liquid is added to the “Oil + Egg + Liquid” line. If not using an egg, then it’s 2 tbsp. of olive oil to the “Oil” line then add water or vegetable juice to the oil up to the “Oil + Liquid” line. Push switch on the pasta machine to MIX, add liquid by pouring slowly back and forth through the liquid crease on the lid of your clear bin. Mix flour and liquid for 4 minutes. Push switch to STOP and then to EXT (extrude).

5.Turn OFF and let motor stop completely. Never switch form MIX to EXT or from EXT to MIX without stopping first.

6.Turn machine to EXT (extrude) and watch your pasta come out the front. Cut it off at desired lengths with the backside of a table knife or with the optional locking ring pasta cutter.

7.Cook fresh pasta in 4-6 quarts of boiling salted water. Drain and serve with sauce. Angel hair cooks in 30 seconds. Spaghetti in 1 minute, and macaroni in a minute and a half to 2 minutes.

Just Right

Well mixed, after mixing at least 4 minutes. Small pea-sized lumps.

Too Dry

Still powdery. Just add liquid (water or juice) by teaspoonful while machine is on MIX. Watch for small lumps to appear.

Too Wet

Large wet lumps stick to blades? Add flour 1 tablespoon at a time while machine is on MIX until you have small pea-sized lumps. You may have to stop machine and take dough off blades.
