They look beautifully shaped and oh my, I am feeling hungry and haven't had breakfast yet :)

Bellissimi fusilli, Simona! I can't wait to (try to) make them!

One question - why do you pour a glass of cold water in the pot before draining the pasta?

Grazie mille for your wonderful blog.

Simona Carini

Thank you, Ivy. It takes a little practice, but it is rewarding.

Grazie a te, Ric, for the kind words. The immediate answer would be that my mother always did it :) The idea is to cool the water somewhat and stop the cooking.

Anna Engdahl

Thanks again, Simona. I wish you would write a cookbook or two, so I could have all your recipes and instructions in one place.

Frank @Memorie di Angelina

Amazing skills in those hands. And it's quite a collection of handmade pastas you've assembled here. I doubt there is anything else like it on the net!

Simona Carini

Thank you so much for your kind words, Anna.
I have thought about gathering some of my recipes in book format a few times, but have not gone much further than that in terms of planning. I have some ideas that need to ferment a bit longer :)

Grazie, Frank, sei molto gentile. And I am not planning to stop any time soon :)

Simona Carini

Grazie, Sandra, per le parole gentilissime e di incoraggiamento. Mi fa un sacco piacere leggere che i miei piccoli esperimenti ti sono di aiuto.

Katie

I miss both making and eating pasta... but, you gave me an idea, 'Use a small portion of dough' I could do that just for me! Wonderful idea with the mat!

Simona Carini

Thank you Katie. The dough recipe is perfect for your situation. Have a great weekend.

Paz

I enjoyed going over the Italian words. :-) I love that the pasta looks so perfectly made and the dish looks perfectly delicious! :-)

Paz

P.S. Thanks for the video demonstration. It looks like fun to shape the dough. :-)

Simona Carini

Thank you, thank you, Paz. Making pasta by hand has become quite a passion for me.

Terry

Le tue abili mani e lo stuoino hanno preso il via... Produzione di pasta nuova e sempre bellissima!
Sei bravissima! :)

Simona Carini

Grazie per il complimento, Terry :)
