Dear List,

I recently purchased an Imperia pasta machine.  It is the kind that rolls
and cuts the dough, not the kind that mixes and extrudes.  (I think the
recipes would be different for the two kinds of machines.)  I'm looking
for recipes and tips.  I have all the Bette Hagman books and have tried a
couple of hers.  I also checked out this month's cooking class:  Perfect
Your Own Pasta at www.glutenfreeda.com.  They suggest using  Gluten-Free
Pantry's French Bread Flour mix which I can't use because it has
cornstarch.  Their directions also require the use of a food processor
which I don't have.  However, their tips were very helpful.

I do have a Kitchen Aid mixer and I prefer to make recipes from scratch.
If your favorite recipes contain cornstarch, please send them and I will
try to substitute.  I'd also like more tips.  Has anyone tried kneading
the dough with their dough hook and mixer?

By the way, I have used my pasta machine to roll out cracker dough.  It
takes time, but produces a thin cracker which bakes evenly because it's
all an even thickness.  (Something I can't seem to get with a rolling
pin.)

I'll summarize.

Linda
