Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of KitchenAid KPRA Pasta Roller Attachment for Stand MixersCustomer Review: SET DE LAMINADORA Y CORTADORA DE PASTA ESPECTACULAR . Summary: 5 Stars
Creo que este aditamento para la batidora de Kitchenaid es uno de las mas practicos accesorios que se le puedan comprar. Y es que hacer pasta con estos implementos es muy simple. Solo tienes que tomar harina, huevos y sal y mezclarlos en la mixer, luego lo reposas y porcionas. Se monta la laminadora y sin ningun esfuerzo fìsco, hands free, puedes manipular la masa para que la lámina salga perfecta y del grosor uniforme que tu elijas. Finalmente montas la cortadora que desees y ya. Es así de simple !!. Un consejo: La cortadora de spaguetti tiende a dejar parejas ligeramente adheridas entre si. Lo que hay que hacer es detener la mixer antes de que termine todo el corte, y mientras estan colgando de la cortadora, se separan con los dedos en forma muy fácil. Su costo con respecto a una maquina manual es considerablemente más alto, pero creo que vale la pena invertir por que te facilita la cocina, puedes atender una visita inesperada sin muchos preparativos, y es super elegante.
Customer Review: If it's too pricey, add it to your wishlist and pray Summary: 5 Stars
I requested these rollers for a birthday gift because I felt that 100 bucks was a bit steep considering a regular hand cranked pasta roller cost ~50, and these were only attachments! Regardless of the price, these rollers are an excellent product. After reading the older reviews, with folks complaining about there being little shreds of metal in the attachments, I think that Kitchenaid must have been reading them too, because my attachments came clean as a whistle. After going through the trouble of making throw-away dough, I did not see any debris being mixed in and was rather pleased. The first things I made were an all-purpose flour pasta, and a semolina pasta, and the machine did a wonderful job on both. I really can't complain about these rollers at all. The fact that they are mounted high above your workspace is very convenient. And although I only used the attachments on the first speed setting, it was plenty fast enough for me. Most useful birthday gift I've received in a long time.
Customer Review: Makes delicious saimin noodles too Summary: 5 Stars
Before purchasing the roller, I had spent over 1 hr flattening and cutting my saimin noodles and finally decided to get smart and buy a pasta roller. Wonderful decision and worth every penny. It was so easy and fun sliding all the dough through it. Clean up was a snap too. Just a swish with the brush it came with and occassionally I will have to use a toothpick to dig at the dried dough but overall very easy cleanup. Unfortunately I forgot to time myself to see how long it took for the whole process but I do know it was a LOT shorter than 1 hr. My boyfriend's mother was impressed that I could make such professional looking noodles from scratch. I used the recipe included in the instruction book for pasta noodle and that also turned out great. I have used it to flatten lavosh dough. It made the lavosh so thin and crispy and the sesame seeds were nicely embedded in there. My family and I are enjoying it so much. Definitely worth the money. Only bad thing is the 4 lbs I have gained from eating so well.
Customer Review: A. WINSELL Summary: 5 Stars
I PURCHASED THIS PRODUCT WITH MY KA PROFESSIONAL 600 MIXER. I LOVE TO MAKE LASAGNA AND THOUGHT MY RECIPE WOULD BE BETTER WITH FRESH NOODLES. AFTER I MADE THE DOUGH AND LET IT REST FOR AN HOUR I BEGAN TO ROLL OUT NOODLES. I USED THE RECIPE FROM THE BOOK THAT CAME WITH THE ATTACHMENT. AT FIRST THE DOUGH SEEMED TO BE EXTREMELY DRY. I WAS AFRAID THAT THIS WAS NOT GOING TO WORK, BUT I STARTED ANYWAY. I WAS QUICKLY IMPRESSED. THE ATTACHMENT ROLLED OUT BEAUTIFUL NOODLES, AND LOT OF THEM. THE VERY NEXT DAY MY SISTER WANTED ME TO MAKE BIEROCKS. I ALSO MAKE THESE FROM SCRATCH. AFTER I LET THE DOUGH RISE AND WAS GETTING READY TO ROLL IT OUT. MY SISTER HAD AN IDEA. USE THE PASTA ROLLER TO ROLL OUT SHEETS OF BREAD DOUGH. I THOUGHT WHY NOT. SO WE BEGAN, AND AGAIN THE ROLLER IMPRESSED ME. WE USED SMALL DOUGH BALLS AND ROLLED THEM INTO LITTLE SHEETS. THE GREAT THING ABOUT USING A PASTA ROLLER WAS ALL THE DOUGH WAS EXACTLY THE SAME THICKNESS. SO ALL THE BIEROCKS TURNED OUT PERFECT. GREAT PRODUCT.
Customer Review: Basta Pasta?......Never! Summary: 5 Stars
After many years of cranking my old-fashioned manual pasta maker, I finally treated myself to the KitchenAid KPRA Pasta Roller Attachment as a "return-to-Florida" housewarming gift. It is the best! I will use it not only for pasta-making, but for processing pierogi dough for the holidays [it sure beats rolling out the dough with a rolling pin like babcia had to!] -- how's that for crossing cultural and ethnic boundaries! Regarding the "dirty dough" about which at least one reviewer complained, it would have been helpful if the instruction booklet suggested that a small bit of dough be put through the roller and/or cutter as a "test run" to clean any sediment and/or dust out of the roller/cutter [I learned that from the manual roller booklet]. Also, it's important to use the enclosed brush frequently to brush clean both the top AND bottom of the roller/cutter in between rounds of rolling/cutting dough-- the build-up of dried dough can also lead to this "dirty dough" problem...
