TOP TIPS FROM COOKMATE ON BROAD STREET:

From pasta machines, pasta pots, and ravioli cutters, it’s easier and quicker than you think to make your own pasta, and whilst a pasta machine makes it easy to roll, it is possible with a rolling pin too. Cookmate even has a rolling pin to make fettucini.

You will soon find you need somewhere to hang your pasta and World Flavours have a great one.

Using a traditional pasta pot, simply makes it easier and safer to drain your pasta, they can also double as a stock pot and colander too. A very worthy investment.
