The Best Pasta Machine Cookbook Ever

Pasta machines are popular with busy, affluent and health-conscious Americans who like the machine's speed and flexibility -- and its incredibly fresh pasta. The Best Pasta Machine Cookbook Ever expands the run-of-the-mill repertoire of pastas, going far beyond the flour-and-egg variety.

The list of pasta recipes, with accompanying sauces for each, is extensive and imaginative. The recipes range from Basic Wheat Pasta, Egg Pasta and Spinach Pasta to the not-so-ordinary Lemon, Squid Ink, Beet, Carrot, Scallion, Chinese Egg Noodles and Chocolate. A sampling of the sauces includes Classic Pesto Sauce, Dilled Swedish Meatball Sauce, "New Wave" Turkey Chili Sauce, Sorrel Cream Sauce, Bacon and Arugula Sauce, Roasted Garlic and Mussel Cream, Cheddar and Ale Sauce, Red Flannel Hash Sauce and Lemon-Sage. Organized according to pasta type, this book is an essential companion for the hot-selling pasta maker.
