Making pasta is one of those things that I never thought that I would fall in love with. Now, unlike this recipe I do go for the easy way- yes I have a pasta maker attachment for our kitchen-aid. You can also buy or cut roll it out and cut as the instructions say. Honestly though- the attachment for the Kitchen-Aid is one of the best buys I’ve made (it makes making pierogi a breeze).
