Imperia Pasta Presto.

• This is quite a large, silver-finished machine which sits on your work surface.



• Its lid covers rollers which are controlled by a knob setting, allowing six different thicknesses of pasta.



• The rollers will create beautifully thin sheets for lasagne, or



• There are integral cutters to make two different widths of ‘ribbon’ pasta - tagliatelle or fettucine.



• If that’s not enough for you, you can also buy other attachments to make different pasta types.

• With this machine, you do need to learn how to make pasta dough. It’s a simple process you can master first time - and it’s great fun to do with kids.




• Once your dough is made, just turn the mechanism on and feed it into the machine’s rollers two or three times, until you get the pasta to the thickness you prefer.




• Then choose the type of pasta you want - lasagne sheets, tagliatelle or fettucine - and put the sheets through the cutter mechanism.




• You then need to leave the pasta for twenty minutes or so before simply plunging it into water at a ‘rolling boil’.




• In ninety seconds you will have a bowl of steaming, delicious pasta which is like no shop-bought pasta - fresh or dried - could ever match!




• The machine has a non-stick coating so simply wipes clean very easily.

• Distinctive, stylish design.



• Robust, sturdy, reliable machine with a twelve month guarantee.



• Six roller settings mean you control exactly how thick or thin you make your pasta.



• Three different pasta types possible - lasagne, tagliatelle and fettucine.



• Other attachments available to buy.



• Non-stick coating makes it very easy to clean.



• Ideal if you have a big family or do a lot of catering and need to make larger amounts of pasta quickly.
