According to KitchenAid, the cutter I used is actually for fettucini. Allow me some artistic license in calling in spaghetti. And there's no garlic in this recipe. I don't think it really needs it either. This recipe is really a celebration of fresh tomatoes. It's also a bit more northern Italian where they aren't as fond of garlic.

However, isn't this tagliatelle rather than spaghetti? And NO garlic, really?? Sounds just like the thing I would love!

So it may look really thing when you roll it out but it's going to double in width when it cooks. waltzingaustralia - I'm not allowed to make pesto as my wife doesn't like it (well, I can make it but I don't see the purpose in making things she dislikes). Traditionally, pesto is served with a very broad noodle so you'd probably have to cut it by hand. paperseed - The baguette is definitely a baguette (it's probably closer to a batard in size but who's counting?). I usually don't put too much effort into shaping bread when I make it but I'm going to avoid rubber glove shape in the future. wildsynergy - I wish I could easily afford organic free range eggs. The ones sold at the farmers market are about triple the price of the ones at Trader Joe's. I'm not sure if it's 3x as good, particularly for how I use them (mostly in things like pasta or baked goods where eggs don't provide a lot of the flavor). Maybe I should do a taste test.

It's a bit different than i've done, so i'm excited to give it a try! i'll have to add, though that i prefer to buy eggs at a local co-op, or from a local farmer. When it comes to things like this- 'cheaper' is usually far more costly in the long run. with wild synergy! Thanks for the beautiful pasta recipe!

We have an Italian friend who makes this all the time, and now my husband makes it, too (although not with fresh pasta like yours!). I can't wait to check out some of your other posts. Very nice photos, too. Funny, but I thought that baguette shot was the thumb of a rubber glove holding a washcloth, at first glance. I have no idea why! I love this recipe!

I have a huge basil plant, and as the weather is about to turn too cold for it to stay alive, I was hoping to make pesto -- and also to essay my first attempt at making pasta. I'll keep this post in mind when I head to Trade Joe's for my eggs! Thanks for the pasta-making tips.
