This post is going to teach you step-by-step on making the perfect dough for making spaghetti or other noodle shapes plus has plus tantalizing sauce recipes to match your homemade cut noodles.

I first learned pasta making from grandma and my mom at age 11, all by hand that certainly was a wonderful cherished memory and a labor of love.

In the 1960s we would make the dough, roll it, dry it, and cut it and now most pasta machines can do it all in half the time

I was so lucky to grow up with such talented cooks to learn from and until later in my years I never used a pasta machine until now.

I have such a passion for cooking great food and learning all about Regional Italian foods and recipes.

As a wife, mother of two wonderful sons, and grandmother to three precious grandchildren I love continuing to teach the traditions I was taught.

Growing up we all resided in Utica, New York, (also referred to as “Little Italy”) where many Italian immigrants settled and we learned I learned so many all parts of Italy, many recipes you will find in this post.
