To Attach Pasta Shape Press Accessory

To Use Pasta Shape Press Accessory

2. Slowly feed walnut-size pieces of
dough into the hopper; dough should
self-feed. The auger should be visible
before adding the next piece of dough.

3. Use combo tool to push dough only if
dough becomes caught in hopper and
no longer self feeds.

1. Set the Stand Mixer speed between
6 and 10, according to pasta type
and personal preference. For best
results, Fusilli should be extruded at a
maximum speed of 6. Slower speeds
are also recommended for very short
pasta. Longer pasta, such as Spaghetti
may be extruded at higher speeds.

Rotating Blade Hazard

Always use combo tool.

Keep fingers out of openings.

Keep away from children.

Failure to do so can result in
amputations or cuts

dishwasher to clean.

6. Auger, pasta ring, combo tool and
storage case are dishwasher safe.

NOTE: Do not wash press housing or
pasta plates in dishwasher or immerse in
water or other liquids.

NOTE: These accessories are designed to
be used with pasta dough only. To avoid
damaging your Pasta Shape Press, do not
insert anything other than pasta dough.

NOTE: Mixer must rest at least 1 hour after
extruding 900 g (2 pounds) of dough.

Dough

•Learningtomakehomemadepasta

is simply a matter of practice. If you
have not made pasta, you may have to
prepare several batches of dough before
you feel comfortable. We recommend
experimenting with the Basic Egg
Noodle Pasta Recipe, page 11.

•Theratioofliquidtoflourissmall,

making the pasta dough firm and
leathery, but still pliable. It is extremely
important to have the correct proportion
of ingredients for proper dough
consistency, as dough that is too moist
or too dry will be difficult to work
with. To help you achieve consistent
results, the pasta recipes in this booklet
specify sifted flour. To sift flour, follow
this procedure: Place dry ingredient
measuring cup on a large piece of waxed
paper and hold sifter directly above and
close to cup. Scoop flour into sifter and
sift until flour exceeds top of cup. Using
the flat edge of a spatula, remove excess
flour from measuring cup.

•Occasionally,theremaybeunmixed

pieces of dough in the bowl after initial
mixing with the flat beater. These pieces
will be sufficiently incorporated by
Stand Mixer kneading followed by hand
kneading which firms and smoothes the
texture of the dough.

•Manyfactors,suchashumidity,brand

of flour used, and size of eggs, can
affect dough consistency. To compensate
for humid conditions, start the initial
mixing process with only the sifted
flour and eggs. Check the dough for
proper consistency by pinching a small
amount of dough together after mixing
with the flat beater. The dough should
stay together without sticking to your
fingers. It may be necessary to add a
small amount of water or flour to reach
correct dough consistency.

•Iftheprepareddoughistoomoistor

sticky to extrude, simply dust with flour
or pat some flour into the dough before
placing in the extruder.

in different directions as they extrude
through the plate. The first 25 cm
(10 inches) of curled noodles may be
pulled off and returned to the hopper
to be extruded again. Pasta will extrude
slowly at first, then faster as more
dough is extruded.

•Separatepastaimmediatelyafterextrusion.

Lay a group of noodles on a towel placed
on a flat surface and pull apart from drier
ends of strands. Dry in a single layer. Long
strands of pasta may be placed on a

Drying Rack (KPDR).

•Homemadepastabehavesdifferently

than store-purchased pasta. Because
long noodles bend as they dry and
are more fragile, they require gentle
handling before cooking.

Storing Your Pasta

•Storedriedpastainanairtightglassor

plastic container almost indefinitely in a
cool, dark place. However, do not store
dried whole-wheat pasta for more than
1 month, as it may turn rancid.

then wrap in an airtight plastic bag and
refrigerate for up to 5 days. To freeze,
double wrap the pasta and keep frozen
for up to 4 months. To use frozen
fresh pasta, do not thaw – it should go
directly from freezer into boiling water.

Pasta Making Tips

WARNING

Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let foods that contain
perishable ingredients such as
eggs, dairy products, and
meats remain unrefrigerated for
more than one hour.

Doing so can result in food
poisoning or sickness.

11

English

Add 10 ml (2 teaspoons) salt and
15 ml (1 tablespoon) oil (optional) to
5,7 L (6 quarts) boiling water. Gradually
add pasta and continue to cook at a boil
until pasta is “al dente” or slightly firm to

the bite. Pasta floats to the top of the
water while cooking, so stir occasionally to
keep it cooking evenly. Drain in a colander.

dry)

Place white flour in Stand Mixer bowl. Attach bowl and flat
beater. Turn to speed 2 and gradually add eggs and a pinch

flat beater for dough hook. Turn to speed 2 and knead until
dough is elastic.

If dough is too dry, add a little olive oil during the
kneading.

Remove mixture from bowl and hand knead for 30
seconds to 1 minute.

Form walnut-sized pieces of dough and extrude pasta into
desired shape. Separate and dry as desired, then follow
cooking instructions above.

Finely dice the courgette and simmer together with the
shallot and garlic. Leave to simmer until the courgette is
reduced to a pulp.

Season with salt and pepper.

Boil the macaroni in water with a little salt until al dente.

Add the scampi to the courgette mixture. Stir well and

1 bunch of fresh spring

1 pack of cherry

700 g passata (sieved

pureed tomatoes –

buy ready made)
1 large sprig of finely

chopped parsley
finely chopped chives
2 to 3 tablespoons

olive oil
500 g rigatoni

Preparation:

Heat some oil in a non-stick pan.

Finely chop the cloves of garlic and add to the oil.

Heat the garlic thoroughly. It is important that you can
actually smell the garlic cooking, but it is also important
not to let it burn.

Add the dried peperoncini or hot Chilli powder (the
amount used determines how hot this dish is).

Leave everything to fry gently and in the meantime bring
some water to a boil.

Boil the bucatini until al dente and drain immediately.

Mix the bucatini with the garlic and the dried peperoncini
or Hot Chilli Powder mixture.

Serve immediately and sprinkle with a handful of
grated pecorino.

TIP: Give the hot pasta dish a crunchier texture by
adding fried breadcrumbs. It is best to use white bread
that is several days old. You can make the breadcrumbs
crunchy by frying them in the hot oil after you have
added the garlic.

Preparation:

Heat some olive oil in a saucepan. Finely chop the spring
onions. Cut the tomatoes in half and add them to the hot
oil together with the spring onions. Leave to simmer gently.

Then add the passata and allow to thicken. Season with
salt and pepper.

Leave the sauce to cook through for around 15 minutes
on a gentle heat so that the tomatoes soften.

Drain and reserve the oil from the tuna. Add the fish
to the tomato sauce. Add some of the reserved oil to
strengthen the tuna flavour to taste.

In the meantime, boil the rigatoni until al dente. Drain
the pasta.

Mix the pasta with the tuna sauce.

Decorate the plate with the finely chopped parsley
and chives.

TIP: Make sure you use tuna in olive oil and not in brine
or spring water.
