Giulano I love your videos! Not only is your 'handwork'(?) elegant and skilled but you're excellent at explaining things and giving small hints as you go. I love your videos. Thank you all the way from Sydney, Australia.

Thank you for such a great video series on pasta. My pasta would always stick together and now I see where I went wrong. Thanks!

Just stopping by the comments to let you know i used your video at my job to teach a couple of cooks how to make pasta. It came out !!!😁🤌

You are a born teacher. Excellent demonstration. I cheat by using a food processor with a dough hook, and I love my pasta machine instead of rolling and cutting by hand. If you don't have a drying rack, a broom handle ( wipe it off first) between 2 chairs will work. Homemade pasta is in a different ballpark than the box kind. No comparison. Love your videos.:o)

Thank you for doing these videos. There are great small touches here that other videos I have watched do not show. Very helpful.

[Bear_Fuzz]

Mr. Hazan,  I bought your book, 'The classic Pasta Cookbook'.  I love the instructions and recipes; they are awesome.  I noticed that the instructions you give here are slightly different.  I have been making pasta recipes from your book the last week and my family loves them.  However, my dough never seems to come out quite the way it looks in your book.  Now watching your videos I see where I went wrong.  Thank you for these.

He is like the Bob Ross do pasta. I love it!

[coreyweiser]

Take a shot every time he says "otherwise it would stick" best of luck folks!

Joking aside, great video! I'm definitely looking into getting a pasta roller in the near future!

You have the most strangely soothing voice

After watching your video on kneading dough I couldn’t watch anyone else roll and cut it.
👍

Hi Giuliano, thanks for the really clear videos! I have a question: I don't have a pasta machine, so I use a rolling pin. It seems with a machine, the dough rolls to the next thickness immediately. However, when I use a rolling pin, my dough springs back a little after each pass, so it takes a while to get the correct thickness. Am I making my dough too elastic, or is the machine just more effective at rolling?

As a matter of fact, I have recently launched a class on Craftsy.com where I teach a variety of filled pastas!

[nightninja]

hi i was wondering if that is a mercer chef knife? it looks just like mine

[CumulusSkies]

Lovely! I wish you could show us how to make tortellini. Also, some of your favorite ravioli and tortellini fillings. Embarrassingly, I don't have a great tomato pasta sauce recipe. I know! My family has to suffer through Prego. (hanging my head in shame...)

[Dickeymoe]

I wish you would have done it all by hand. I don't have a pasta roller/machine.
