Kitchen Tools

This is easily my favorite KitchenAid attachment. It’s a high quality tool that changes any KitchenAid to an automatic and very precise pasta machine (so no more cranking). It is really easy to set and use. You can buy just the sheet maker (great for lasagna too) or the 3 pack, which I have, and I would recommend as the best value option (it also includes a spaghetti and fettuccine cutter).

There are also five packs with two extra cutters, which I don’t consider that useful, but you may have a different opinion. The one pasta attachment usually sold separately is the Ravioli maker, but I cannot recommend it to you as it needs to be operated (turned) manually (even after mounted to the KitchenAid). You need to be very precise when using it. I personally find any other way of making ravioli more effective. If you make a lot of pasta, you might also consider purchasing their pasta dryer (pasta drying rack). It is easy to use and, when done, can be compactly folded. See recipe “Pasta from Scratch” here.
