How To Make Homemade Pasta with KitchenAid Mixer

[@SharonCullenArt]

Explained very well. I think I’ve had mine for 2 years and still haven’t used it. I’m ready now!

[@dopapier]

Nice and clear. It would be better without the music, particularly when you are talking.

[@leoantonio]

The biggest problem with all instructional videos on KZbin

[@jasminegalvin]

Yes cut out the music!

[@greytangel754]

i totally agree. the music was actually quite annoying as it didnt fit the video and the gentleman was quiet spoken so i had a hard time following his video at times.

[@tlr8611]

I have literally made every mixer and attachment purchase based on your thorough videos which give a real uncut look at how it works in day to day use. Thank you for the videos

[@EverythingKitchens]

So glad we could help! Your Kitchenaid really is more than a mixer now 👨‍🍳

[@starpartyguy5605]

I made pasta last week and froze it for Christmas Eve. 6 dozen ravioli and 3 pounds of spaghetti. My ratio is similar. 600 g flour, 360 g wet ingredients, 4 whole eggs, 6 yolks, and water to reach the correct weight. Making more tomorrow.

[@MsBeachLizard]

Excellent explanation. I did this tons of years ago with my KA and needed a quick refresher. Perfect.

[@musicroom7185]

This guy is great! Detailed & easy to follow. Thanks!!

[@lisamiller3759]

Thanks for this tutorial! I just got my KitchenAid attachments and I'm so excited to try this. How long should I leave the dough in the fridge before rolling? Do you have a video on how to dry pasta for storage? Thanks for the great instructions!

[@WhiteRavenSong]

From my instruction said to wrap the dough ball in plastic wrap and let sit for 30min at room temperature … idk i just got my kitchenaid roll/cutter for x-mas…

[@EverythingKitchens]

Hey Lisa! You can see the Full Recipe and Directions here: evkitch.com/2tjy4M1 You'll want to let the dough sit for atleast 30 minutes in the fridge to set up. As for drying, let the pasta you can leave noodles on a drying rack (or coiled into small nest) for 12-24 hours to dry and store in an air-tight container. I hope this helps, happy pasta making!

[@PhuongHuynh-qm5th]

We love making pasta at home with our KA and rollers. The only thing different we do is rarely ever go down to level 8. By about 5 or 6 its thick enough for most spaghetti (for our tastes) and we prefer thicker pasta for fettuchini and lasagna. Great Video!

[@HTMLguruLady2]

This is the absolute best tutorial I have ever found for making pasta with the KitchenAid!! Only critique I have is your music is too loud. Music should be subtle and in the background, especially music that is as repetitive as this was. Other than that, fabulous video!!

[@EverythingKitchens]

Hey Andy, glad this video could help! This is one of our older videos we produced and our current videos have much more balanced audio to solve this issue 🔊

[@carriesquires2988]

could you use the roller for rolling small round balls flat

[@EverythingKitchens]

I don't see why you couldn't roll small pasta dough balls flat - should work fine!

[@rodneypoe4915]

Great presentation, when I was growing up a friends mother made fresh pasta which was wonderful beyond words. When she composed her dough she used mostly egg yolks, or more egg yolks than whole eggs. She made a large batch then after resting the dough we used a crank pasta roller as you did with your KitchenAid attatchment before putting it through the cutter. After drying the pasta for an hour or two she boiled it for a minute or two, after draining she topped it with a mixture of melted butter with crumbled saltine crackers. I have never had any pasta ever which was as wonderful as hers ever, have you ever seen such a recipe for the pasta dough of using more egg yolks than whole eggs? If so could you provide me with it? I was only 13 years old, this was 1970. She was a German lady.

[@rodneypoe4915]

Thank you, I will check it out. and when I have the funds I wish to purchase one of those pasta roller attachments for my KitchenAid mixer which I enjoyed greatly.

[@trinitydrury6434]

[@Mrclean431]

[@bwtjma183]

I was completely clueless on how to correctly use this thing! thank you so much.- a new sub

[@EverythingKitchens]

Glad we could help!

[@aareavis]

The egg to flour ratio is perfect. I weigh the eggs first then weigh out 1.5 times that in flour. If I have four eggs that weigh 200 grams, then I weigh out 300 grams of flour. A little salt and baking powder doesn't hurt either. One day, I'll get my hands on 00 flour.

[@coodie]

That's a way better way to think about it! I'm watching going "ok how am I gonna measure out 6 ounces of eggs, do I take out the whites or the yolk to get to the 6 ounces if I'm over?! What do I do?!" But if you just go 2/3 ratio method and measure the eggs first, you'll get the perfect about of flour needed. Excited to try it out. Ordered the pasta set today.

[@MrSidCharming]

@@coodie lightly mix/beat the eggs and then pull out to get your weight. no need to worry whites or yokes this way

[@zzzut]

Pasta thickness is a matter of taste but dough rolled up to the 8th setting seems to be rather thin for spaghettis. From here, this pasta looks more like vermicelli.

[@LaurieMalone-x6r]

When you fold the pasta do you flour it as well?

[@EverythingKitchens]

yes, continue to flour it so it does not stick to the pasta roller!

[@MaloneMediationandLaw]

Thank you.

[@CynthiaGarcia-bb3ev]

How long in the fridge?? 😅

[@EverythingKitchens]

30 minutes in the fridge! You can get the full recipe her: evkitch.com/2tjy4M1

Nice video. One question, is that the kitchenid Artisan 5qt? How much flour can you mix in it? Thinking about getting one. Thanks!

[@EverythingKitchens]

Yes, it is! The Artisan can handle 9 cups of flour at its maximum. We can ship your mixer for free! Learn more here: evkitch.com/3HUS5h4

[@cecified]

Can I multiply the ingredients for large batches so I can freeze?

[@EverythingKitchens]

Ceci, yes! You can freeze the dough ball and thaw to roll out pasta dough in the future.

[@cecified]

@@EverythingKitchens I mean can you like triple the batches

[@EverythingKitchens]

@@cecified Ceci, yes, the Kitchenaid mixer should be able to handle a triple batch of dough, but I would not go over that with an Artisan mixer. I hope this helps!

[@ladyfreya1]

@@cecified It would be better to just make multiple batches. I've even rolled pasta out and frozen sheets between parchment to use next time I make a lasagne. I cook from frozen a sheet at time while building the lasagne =)

Would one be able to make regular all purpose flour a little bit finer just, as a substitute, when on a whim, but not wanting a shopping trip?

[@popatop75]

ought to keep the other doughballs under a damp cloth until using (drys out) great job

[@animelover5442]

If you want to make all the pasta sheets out of the dough would that help as well? A friend of mine tried to make all the sheets at once but the older ones dried out before she could shape them.

Question.... how soon after you make the pasta can u cook it?

[@EverythingKitchens]

You can put the fresh pasta into boiling water immediately!

[@marcotognetti1047]

Hi Chef, I have a question to ask here about the kitchenaid. I just got a new one with 300 watts of power I think, the model is the artisan one. I have doubts about the maximum quantity of dough that I can make at a time, I always get the impression is that the mixer is making too much effort, even respecting the maximum quantities that they say on the manual(1kg white flour) Last time I even saw some smoke coming out of the machine using 750 grams of flour and 8 eggs Help me not to break my machine please. Thank u

[@EverythingKitchens]

Marco, smoke is never good! You could have a defective unit - I would give KitchenAid a call and ask about a replacement - the mixer should never be smoking. Call KitchenAid 1 [phone], Hours of Operation Mon-Fri: 8 a.m.-8 p.m. EST

[@marcotognetti1047]

Thank you a lot, I have already called assistance for support, and they confirmed that they are gonna replace it or fix it. Hope they can solve the problem. Have a nice Christmas, and again thanks for your answer

[@MrRich-yp7eu]

Music to loud, your voice is only on one side. I think other than that, you did an excellent job of making pasta.

[@nikkiflowers4241]

love this tutorial for this beginner here (me).....but surely wish the music wasnt in the background. Have to turn volume up to hear you, but that makes the music louder too :(

[@pastrycrafter]

Can please tell me how to clean the pasta roller before first use and after using it? Thank you.

[@EverythingKitchens]

Jennifer, I washed mine under running water with a little bit of dish soap before and after using it. It does come with a small cleaning brush to get flour and dough out of the roller. The pasta roller is one of my favorite attachments for the KitchenAid mixer, check it out here: evkitch.com/2QqrNLo

[@OfCourseYouCan]

NEVER get these wet. Just use cleaning brush and wipe with a clean cloth. If there are bits stuck in the cutters use a toothpick to get them out.

[@Jeff-vh1zz]

@@OfCourseYouCan You are correct. KitchenAid states Italian stainless steel. NEVER WASH IN WATER. Just let pasta dry and use included brush.

[@mcnasty4207]

So do those 4 portions make that one long sheet? I've never understood this part

[@EverythingKitchens]

McNasty - yes, what you see in the video is 1/4 of the total pasta dough making the long sheet. Using more than that makes it difficult to handle through the roller.

[@1myreille1]

How long do we need to put the ball in the refrigerator? :)

[@EverythingKitchens]

Myreille, at least 30 minutes should do the job. See the full recipe here: evkitch.com/2tjy4M1

[@madelienetarasick3533]

This recipe and instructions worked perfectly. As per the comment below, I just kept the unused dough balls in the plastic wrap till ready to run through. The "00" flour is a must - I had a fail before with semolina flour. Well done and thank you.

Wonderful! I'm so glad you got to enjoy homemade pasta 👨‍🍳🍝

[@mommasuz3]

[@animelover5442]

I have a question chef. I know everyone has different ways and recipes to make pasta, but I notice you didn't add olive oil. Is it cause of the amount of egg or does it depend on the kind of pasta you want? Also do we have to do a quarter at a time or can we make all the sheets at once then shape them?

[@EverythingKitchens]

Aromero, you can add many liquids to pasta like olive oil, water, even squid ink - as long as the ratio stays similar to a base recipe and the flour is hydrated correctly (not too much liquid, but not too little). I'd recommend doing a quarter portion at a time because it is easier to handle - a quarter portion can roll out over 4ft! When the pasta sheet gets that long, it can get difficult to run the sheet through the roller perfectly straight - shorter pieces are easier to manage in my opinion. Now, you don't have to cut down that long sheet if you do not wish - you can make 4ft long noodles if you want :) Hope this helps! -Chef Austin 👨‍🍳

[@irenegoyette9086]

I was surprised that no salt was added to the dough. Did you add salt?

[@EverythingKitchens]

Irene, instead of adding salt to the dough, we salt the water we use to boil the pasta to properly season it. I hope this helps!

[@Gutslinger]

I've been wanting a stand mixer. When googling for one, I get a LOT of results for refurbished KitchenAid mixers, and they're still quite expensive for me, personally. Though I'm still considering buying one. I can't help but wonder why there are so many for sale that are refurbished. I wonder what commonly goes out on them. If it's the nylon gear, that wouldn't be a huge problem, since you can find and order a replacement for fairly cheap. But if there are other common defects, like the motor burning out, it wouldn't be wise for me to purchase it, considering that the mixer alone would already be breaking my wallet. And I don't think the refurbished has any kind of warranty either.. So it seems like a risky purchase choice for me. Tough decision.

[@EverythingKitchens]

Hey Guts, it is a tough decision. There are other mixers out there with better lifespan and better warranties. We reviewed many of the top brands in our article here: evkitch.com/TopMixers Personally, I really like Ankarsrum and Bosch mixers - they have almost as many attachments as the KitchenAid does, but the motors are built a bit better. We can ship your mixer for free too if you decide to buy! Let us know if you have any questions on any mixers :) -Chef Austin

What the heck is 00 pasta flour? I searched target and google and nothing 00 came up, just regular all purpose flour

[@EverythingKitchens]

The best quality pasta we believe is made from 00 flour, sometimes called “double O flour”. 00 flour has is a very fine grind and has a smaller amount of the bran (if any) from the whole grain used compared to other types of flour. This makes for a more silky texture pasta, very delicate, soft to the bite. All-purpose flour can be used to substitute, it will produce a quality pasta with a stronger texture with a bit more chew.

[@maryslattery8696]

Check King Arthur Baking Co. I believe they sell 00 flour on their website.
