CIBO: Homemade Pasta


After so many years and so many visits to Rome,  we've finally gotten around to making our own  fresh pasta. Cousin Maria from the Ostiense section of the Eternal City often demonstrated her considerable cooking skills for us,  and they formed an invaluable educational tool that is equal parts hunger and nostalgia.  Our fettuccine or "little ribbons"  came out remarkably well,  as did the malfatti (badly made)  pasta that came entirely from scraps of the earlier procedure.
