DH makes a lot of pasta from scratch--I've never done it--and homemade is just the best. <BR/><BR/>And I'd cross my fingers for you if they weren't already crossed for me. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30450596.post-70544329335947243672007-10-06T08:11:00.000-06:002007-10-06T08:11:00.000-06:00Thanks! I think you can submit the same recipe; I ...Thanks! I think you can submit the same recipe; I see a couple of duplicates there already. And most people did not blog the recipes; they just linked to a recipe on Epicurious or wherever. So go ahead and enter!<BR/><BR/>Manisha, there were a couple of yellow threads, but what you see in the photo is what I used. Might not have been enough, since the recipe called for 1/4 tsp. That was a very <I>scant</I> 1/4 tsp. I didn't know that overprocessed saffron would do that (clearly I don't get to cook with it much). More experimenting necessary!<BR/><BR/>The making from scratch turned out not as arduous as I thought, apart from all the rolling and shaping. I can definitely see getting into the habit of making simpler forms more often.Kitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16673726727402668186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30450596.post-83721208353476156012007-10-06T07:56:00.000-06:002007-10-06T07:56:00.000-06:00Those are gorgeous!

I love the paddles.<BR/><BR/>I was going to enter Jaden's contest when I got distracted by the fact that someone else had just posted the recipe I was going to link to (Mark Bittman's tomato paella, which I made last week and it was fantastic) and completely forgot to pursue it further. So I hope you win!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14793601965773276686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30450596.post-70238119466263617902007-10-06T00:47:00.000-06:002007-10-06T00:47:00.000-06:00Those paddles are just too cute!

Honestly though, when too much saffron is used or it is soaked too long or heated when it should not be, I get a chlorine-like taste in the food, which I don't like. So for me, mild is good!<BR/><BR/>You sure have a lot of enthusiasm to make pasta from scratch!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
