Perpetual Preparedness: Spaghetti

"Tomatoes and oregano make it Italian; wine and tarragon make it French. Sour cream makes it Russian; lemon and cinnamon make it Greek. Soy sauce makes
it Chinese; garlic makes it good." - Alice May Brock

One use my family has found for freshly ground wheat is making spaghetti. It's actually quite easy and can be a lot of fun. When we have visitors for dinner we sometimes let them make their own meal by rolling and cutting pasta. We make the dough in advance and let it cool and firm up in the fridge beforehand.

We discovered pasta making while dining with a friend and watched in amazement as she made spaghetti in her kitchen. So we bought a pasta maker (optional but makes it so much easier) and, lucky us, a kitchen supply store held a class on pasta making. We also bought a pasta making cookbook.
