That pasta dough looks much easier to work with then regular pasta dough XD Though I would invest in a pasta machine, they are really affordable and when I bought mine it came with a ravioli attachment.

@PraeclarusCharms Eh. I like rolling it out by hand! :) It's part of the fun :)

aww I totally remember reading strega nona as a little kid, brings back memories of lots of time spent in the school library.

and have you ever tried making gnocchi? I'd think that it'd be really easy to make gluten free, and it's totally my favorite pasta to make from scratch 'cause it's super simple.

@l3leedxl3lack Yep! Look back through my vids! I did a pesto gnocchi :)

Dear Gretchen. I just want you to know I'm always happy when I see your Novel Noms videos in my sub box and they always put me in a better mood :)!

@16:41 I want you to feed me too! Haha. Looks nummy.

I used to love being read Strega Nona as a kid, and I had forgotten all about this book. Double awesome :)

I loved your last Chopped challenge. Will your hubby be gathering the secret ingredient basket again? He did a great job last time!

Happy birthday!

I have several thoughts on this video... You kinda made Ravoli Catatori.. It would have been out of this world with turkey... I was already hungry now I'm just psycho for some Italian.. : )

@nyazgirl I did it once, enjoyed the experience but sometimes pasta dough is so hard to work with! lol

I loved that book. Brings back a lot of memories.

I love Strega Nona. Thanks for bringing back my childhood memories. I have a gluten free channel too. I've made homemade pasta too but I haven't tried the BRM flour blend yet. I used rice flour, potato starch, xanthan gum and egg but your recipe looks easier. Thank you.
