Pasta

Yesterday, Hubby and I had a date that involved making fresh pasta.  It was our first experience since purchasing the KitchenAid pasta maker attachment.  We weren't quite sure how the dough was supposed to look or feel, and we were quite concerned with how dry it was.


We scrapped the first batch thinking I accidentally measured the flour incorrectly.  The second time around was not any better, but we were out of flour for a third batch.  We searched online to find out the "secret" that we were missing and I drove to the store for more flour.  As we went to throw out batch number two, we both decided to give it a try.  Turns out, it was just fine!


Running the dough through the pasta maker was such fun.  Hubby and I both loved it and although we don't have many cooked meals, I think there will be a lot more fresh pasta on our dinner plates when we do!!
