Homemade Spaghetti

Step 7 Cut by Machine

Put the crank into one of the cutting rollers. I used the thin cutting rollers here. Take your pasta sheet and hold it up in the air and drape the bottom into the cutting roller. Slowly and evenly turn the crank and the pasta will come out perfectly cut. Before the whole sheet is cut put your hand under the cut pasta. Catching the pasta before it hits your work surface is much easier than picking it up. Then finish cutting.

Try hard not to have any creases go into the cutter. Creases will make uneven lumpy pasta.
