Have you ever made your own pasta? Not only is fresh pasta delicious, making it is a fun kitchen skill to add to your repertoire. Fresh pasta is easy to make with the Philips Avance Pasta Maker, and we've come up with some easy recipes for you to try. With this incredible machine, you can make a pound of pasta in just 15 minutes. If you've ever made homemade pasta, you know that it can be rather time consuming and cumbersome to make pasta with the right texture. I can't tell you how many failed batches of homemade noodles I made before trying this machine.
Philips sent us this machine to play around with, and we developed three different basic pasta recipes, including a Paleo Pasta and a Gluten Free Pasta. Pasta for all! We have not tried these recipes using any other pasta machines. They might work. If you're looking for pasta recipes by hand, here is our basic pasta recipe and our basic gluten free pasta recipe. Philips has generously offered an Avance Pasta Maker to one lucky winner! We'll pair that machine with a selection of flours for making the best homemade pasta ever (winner will choose their preference: paleo, gluten free, regular)! To enter, find the widget below and follow the basic prompts. We'll select one lucky winner from all who enter by 11:59 pm on 2/27/2018. This contest is open to US residents only. Read on for recipes!
Pasta using Philips Avance
