  • Just ordered a kitchenaid mixer, really trying to complete middle class bingo. Has anyone got one and used the pasta maker attachments, or any of the attachments that use the front connector? Just wondered what are gimmicks and what are worth it?

  • unless you're making a restaurants worth of pasta the pasta one is kinda pointless, a hand wound one is much cheaper and more than enough for any reasonable amount of home making

    havent tried any of the others though

  • I like the hand wound pasta makers. Tbf they're the only ones I've tried. The only thing I'd say is that the lingini cutter on mine isn't great. But then I'd generally do fat ribbons, tagliatelle, or ravioli.

    Haven't done it since covid though. I should probably do it again as a weekend activity with the kids now the weather is shit. We made triffle this weekend. Although someone (not me) bought single cream...it was only when I moved onto the hand whisk that I spotted the issue.

    Yeah, but gadgets innit.
