• I was reminded of my low class status yesterday, for the first time in my life I considered making my own pasta, and realised I'm not middle class enough to own a vintage italian pasta shaper or whatever the fuck they use to make those comforting multi-shaped packs of joy.

    At this rate I will be making my own bread soon too, followed by the inevitable artisanal beard.

    God help us, the Corona virus is turning us all into hipsters.

  • All you need to make pasta is a rolling pin and a knife.

    Oh and eggs and flour.

  • Haha.

    Just make up your own shape? Call it British Garden Worm Pasta :p

    I made my own bread but I had no choice due to the quarantine in the house. It never, ever, looks like it should. If you get to that stage, ensure you put enough salt in it needs a surprising amount of salt.

    And put it on a heater with something to elevate it a bit, cos unlike the hipsters you probably won't have a proofing room either (I don't)

    You don’t need to be, you can find a cheap one for £15-20.

    Generally you don’t need to tho, don’t even need eggs.
