Chef Raquel

On Tuesday, I decided to venture out of my comfort zone of baking and try my luck at cooking. As I contemplated what to do in order to avoid boredom for the next 4 hours I thumbed through an old pasta cookbook given to me by my mom. Feeling brave, I rushed out to the grocery store and returned home armed and ready to make my first homemade pasta (we were out of eggs so I had to go get some). As I started kneading the dough I was a bit nervous, but after awhile my confidence was building. Turns out making pasta is quite easy. It is just extremely time consuming, especially if you don't own a pasta roller.

Cutting the pasta. I had to unroll each noodle individually.

Drying the pasta.

Voila!

Scott you would have been proud.
