Follow these steps
Pasta
- Turn the Assistent on its side and attach the pasta roller for spaghetti
- Divide the pasta dough into small pieces and roll each part into oblong strips about 1/8 inch (4 mm) thick and 5 inches (10 cm) wide. For the best results, use the lasagne roller first and make lasagne sheets.
- Start the Assistent at low speed and feed the pasta strips into the spaghetti roller. Let the pasta land on a generously floured surface.
- Boil directly or hang up to dry. Cooking time about 2–3 minutes.
Pesto
- Turn the Assistent on its side and place the blender on the blender socket.
- Add the pine nuts to the blender and mix at medium speed.
- Cut the cheese into cubes, add and mix together with the finely chopped nuts.
- Add the basil, oil and the garlic clove and run at an average speed until all the ingredients are properly mixed. If possible, use a pulsating effect.
