Has anyone tried making fresh pasta with a pasta machine? Is it worth it?

A new pasta machine, right? :). I can't imagine getting the one we had for gluten pasta really clean.

Carry on.... Will be interested to see what people come up with.

Of course! It gives me shudders just to think of using a used one.  :P

 

I'll be interested to see of anyone has tried this.

Nice! :)

 

I'm thinking about making some homemade ravioli today. It's really hard to get any kind of store bought ravioli since I'm dairy free as well as gluten-free, so it'll be nice to make some again.

Those of you who have had success, will you share recipes?  I'd certainly buy a pasta attachment if I knew I could make good pasta.  I guess should practice a bit first, huh?  I've never made pasta before!

flour, egg & water (you can find many, many recipes on the interwebs) i've gotten pretty good at it, so i just do it by eye.  beat the daylights out of it, though, i put the egg into the flour and beat it up.  probably for like, 10 minutes - then you put the water in a little at a time until it forms into a ball.  i have a kitchenaid mixer and i just use the regular paddle attachment, not the dough hook.

Ooh, how do you like the Kitchenaid? I don't have a stand mixer right now, but I'm thinking about it.

I have a kitchen maid that I had before my diagnosis.  I am trying to sell it now though since I am afraid of all the nooks and crannies that gluten can hide in. Or am I just being paranoid and I should be able to get it all clean?

Not to mention, they're ridiculously expensive. I bought some gluten-free ravioli... so happy to find it... and found it pretty tasteless. I'd love to try making it myself.

I need to start saving up for a KitchenAid. I'll bet that it would help with gluten free baking a lot! My hubby has been pretty good about getting me tons of kitchen stuff, he considers kitchen tools to be important.

How is the KitchenAid model different from the others? :)

Those babies are built to last!  They are by far the most durable and long lasting mixer ever made, IMHO.  I remember when I was little my Grandma had one that was so old. I never thought that thing would ever die, and it didn't.  She sold it as an antique and got some pretty good money for it.

My Grammy was using some ancient mixer she had her entire married life when I was little. When I was around 10 or 11 she got a Kitchen Aid for Christmas. (Her kids always get together and buy something awesome for their parents every year.) That was 25 years ago and she's never had a problem with it and I imagine that a young unmarried or newly married great-granddaughter will get it when Grammy passes and that it'll last them for as long as they treat it well.

 

I can't imagine life without mine! I sure would lose a lot of weight though if I didn't have it. I could not possibly do the baking I do without it. I still dream of the day I will get the pasta and sausage attachments. For now though, I'm happy with my shredder. Just another perk of it, all the attachments.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
