Yesterday was a shocker for us midwestern folks – 80 degrees in April? Surely you jest – so feeling very summer-y, I made this. It was exactly what I wanted, such great flavors!

Had this a couple of nights ago. It was pretty good. I loved the texture of the pasta. Thanks for the recipe!!

you should totally get a pasta maker! They’re SO fun! I wish I had room in the cabinets for one…

I love pasta–any and all–and this recipe will be tried in my house soon. Probably next Monday. Thanks!

I love the frequent post-ALEX!
Anyhoo-I also love “The Wire”, but don’t have “On Demand” due to my landlord having that damned “Direct Tv” so I wont see the finale until Sunday so no spoilers!

Fresh pasta is incredible! I made Fettucini once for Mother’s Day. And my husband Niel helped me make Ravioli once.

hi deb!

i have ben reading for a while and love the recipes and pictures. even tried a few out myself:)

i am by no means an accomplished chef, but a few years ago (inspired by a queer eye episode) i bought a pasta roller and have been using it every since i can’t stress how easy it is. ravioli, lasagna, and recently cut pasa have been staples at my house.

i would def reccomend one for you – if you past dishes are any indication – i am sure you will work wonders with it!

(i would get a hand rolling one instead of an electric one – you have MUCH more control – also james beard’s pasta book has been indispensible)

The pasta is beautiful. Just goes to show you we should all just try it. Life and cooking are about learning and the second time you know more etc. I just bought the little hand roller for pasta and the way I understand it I’m supposed to make a batch up just to clean the machine before the real thing! I think that’s called playing with your food.
