All about Pasta & Noodles

This is a an *excellent* book for people who are both new and experienced at handmaking pasta. When I first purchased it I ended up reading it cover-to-cover as if it were a novel. Now, two years later, most of the pages are sauce splattered and flour dusted having seen some serious kitchen usage. The directions are simple and straightforward, the sidebars are entertaining and informative, and all of the recipies that we've tried so far (maybe 75% of them) are fantastic. We've even graduated to filled pastas like tortellini and ravioli now thanks to this book. Definitely an excellent addition to any cooking arsenal.
