How to Prepare Pasta
DIRECTIONS FOR COOKING
PREPARED PASTA
•
Place prepared pasta flat on a
clean tablecloth or clean dishcloth
to dry for one (1) hour.
• Bring 1 gallon per ½ lb of pasta, of
salted water to a rolling boil.
•
Cook pasta 2-5 minutes depending
on the thickness. Stir gently and
often to keep from sticking to pot.
• Drain pasta and serve.
HINT:
Fresh pasta will last 1-2
weeks if it is kept in a cool, dry place.

•
Place cut pasta on a large flat
surface or a drying rack so that it
dries slightly before cooking.

Cleaning the Unit
1. During use, clean the scrapers
underneath the smooth rollers
every so often with a piece of wax
paper. (Fig 13)

any trapped flour or dough
between the rollers, using an
ordinary basting brush that you
have reserved only to clean the
pasta maker. (Fig. 14)

Care and Maintenance
5. To keep the pasta makers rollers
moving smoothly, lubricate the
rollers with a few drops of mineral
oil. (Fig 16)
Do Not use machine oil.
NOTE:
If the cutters do not cut the
pasta sheet, it could mean the dough
is too soft: in this case add some flour
to the pasta sheet and pass it through
the smooth rollers one more time to
incorporate the added flour.
NOTE:
If the pasta sheet cannot be
“caught” by the cutters, add a little
water to the pasta sheet and pass
through the smooth rollers once more.
3. To clean the inside of the unit, slide
the pasta cutter attachment off the
guide rails.
4. Flip the pasta cutter attachment
upside down and gently brush debris
from cutters. (Fig. 15)
Storage
After use, place pasta maker and
accessories in the original box or in a
plastic storage box with a lid.
