I had the pleasure of working with Shola's pasta machine yesterday. We made a few simple shapes: large spaghetti and small rigatoni. I was hooked. Unfortunately in our current environment I cannot justify the purchase of this incredible machine. For now I have machine envy. Luckily, Shola said I can come and make pasta anytime as long as I make enough for the restaurant as well.* I might just do this as this machine is a joy to work with.
*Shola did not actually say that I had to make pasta for the restaurant but he did extend the invitation to see what is possible with this machine.
