There's magic in the simplicity of beautiful silk homemade pasta. It really needs nothing more than some fresh herbs, either amazing butter or equally amazing Extra Virgin Olive Oil and some good salt. Heaven in a big ole bowl of carbs. Really.
Of course you can use this as you would any other purchased pasta, but you will definitely enjoy it more in all the dishes you use it for than if using dried pasta.
Enjoy the process, involve the children, play with it. Make it with love. You'll taste that. It's the ingredient I can't give you!
