PRODUCT USAGE

MAKING PASTA

IMPORTANT: When using the Pasta Press, do not wear ties, scarves, loose clothing or long necklaces; gather long hair with a clasp.

Prepare pasta dough (see “Recipes” section in online Product Guide ). Form dough into walnut-sized balls.
NOTE: The Pasta Press is designed to be used with Pasta Dough only. To avoid damaging your Pasta Press, do not insert anything other than pasta dough.
**WARNING

Rotating Blade Hazard Always use food pusher. Keep fingers out of openings. Keep away from children. Failure to do so can result in amputation or cuts.**

Set the Stand Mixer speed, using “Choosing the right pasta plate” chart.
Slowly feed walnut-sized balls of dough into the Hopper; dough should self feed through the Auger. Wait until Auger is visible before adding the next piece.
Use the Combo Tool to push dough only if dough becomes caught in the Hopper and no longer self feeds.
Use the Cutter to cut pasta at desired length as it exits the press. See “Choosing the right Pasta Plate” for recommended lengths.
WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard Do not let foods that contain perishable ingredients such as eggs, dairy products, and meats remain unrefrigerated for more than one hour. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
Separate pasta after extrusion. Pasta may be cooked immediately. If drying, place long noodles on KitchenAid Drying Rack (5KPDR), or dry in a single layer on a towel placed on a flat surface.
NOTE: Allow Stand Mixer to rest for at least 1 hour after extruding 2 consecutive pasta dough recipes.
