recently i was asked what my best wedding gift was. well of course the very best gift of all was the overwhelming love, support and good intention of all our close friends and family. as far as material things, i’d have to say that this mixer has certainly changed the way we eat around here. josh makes us fresh pasta every time we have bolognese or pesto…he did so well on his first try and it just keeps on getting better. the days of buying fresh pasta are long gone. as far as the color goes we were going to get a funky mint color or red but then realized we tend to go crazy with our wall color so it was best to keep it neutral. anyone ever try making pasta at home?

is it OK to be absolutely jealous that you can make your own pasta? well, i am! i had no idea you could do that with a mixer! that is so awesome!
i have always wanted to try that so i’m jealous! i think i’m intimidated!
don’t be it’s not as difficult as you think.
wonderful work! I have the mixer, but need the pasta attachment to make pasta we will but it in the coming years – so, no we don’t do homemade pasta yet. My mum used to.
Thank you for your comment!
I have that same mixer but I had no idea it had a pasta maker attachment!!! How wonderful ^_^
Hope you’ll stop by again.

duuude we got a kitchenaid mixer too but i didn’t know you could attach a pasta rack! freak!
i would love a mixer but for that i would need a bigger kitchen. my grandparents have one and they built a special cupboard for it that all my grandmother has to do is open the door and pull the shelf up that it sits on and start mixing away! so clever!
xo,

Wow…this is too cool…and much healthier! Way to go Josh!
OMG that looks A-mazing. I have never tried making homemade pasta before and I didn’t know the kitchenaid even had an attachment to do that. I always just use the stuff in the box. How different does it taste? I would assume a LOT different b/c fresh is always better.

oh its absolutely fluffy and quite amazing! so worth every minute of the work put in to making it.
Oooh…fresh pasta!!! Is it hard/time consuming to make? I need to get the attachment for my mixer…
its not difficult nor is it time consuming. i will email you the directions we followed.
I’ve never made fresh pasta, but now I really want to. That machine (and the attachment) looks so cool! I love gadgets. And cooking.
I have never made pasta…but, I have that machine and I heart it too.
i really want one of those to do exactly that… fresh pasta!
I’ve always wanted to make fresh pasta…how hard was it?!?
So cool! That is a beast of a mixer though. What a great gift. I want one too!
I got the EXACT same mixer (same color and everything!) as a wedding gift. But we don’t have the pasta attachment. It’s so going on my Xmas list
Because you are 100% right, there is NOTHING better than homemade pasta. It’s… a beautiful, beautiful thing.
