My mom has a pasta machine. I don't remember seeing her use it. I do remember borrowing it though. When I moved away from my mom, I didn't get to borrow her pasta machine anymore. I decided after trying to roll out pasta with a rolling pin, that I needed a pasta machine. I purchased a pasta machine from Bed, Bath & Beyond near my apartment for $20. Since we now eat homemade pasta and ramen noodles, it seemed like a very good investment.
You can also buy it from Amazon here.
Why use a machine instead of a rolling pin? Let me count the reasons for you.
1. Dough is rolled all the same thickness.
2. Pasta/noodles are all cut the same.
3. A lot easier than rolling it out.
4. Faster than rolling it out.
5. My patience isn't tested along with my muscles.
I have used my pasta machine to make tortillas, crackers, pasta, and ramen noodles.
