Pasta Making from a Master!

We spent about two hours learning the secrets of pasta making from Nonna Margie. She was a hoot. Lilli translated for us. We made farfalle (bow-ties) and ravioli, while she rolled out a huge sheet of the dough for fetuccine. It's amazing how she got it down to a translucent texture.

All of ours had to be run through a pasta machine to give a consistent thickness for baking, but with more time I think we could have gotten there. Éowyn did an awesome job and only needed the same amount of help as most of the adults!

I cannot recommend this experience enough - we both agree it was the highlight of our trip!Read more
