Manual Pasta Maker

I can finally get one of this. Now that I am getting one, I don't really know which one I wanted. Do I go for the price or how they are made? Do I have enough time to make the pasta we needed? Or am I wasting money if I go with the expensive one?

I don't really want to buy a very expensive one, then finding out that buying pasta from the store is better. It seems that with manual pasta maker you can only make certain pasta, not like the electric competitive. However, I am looking at this a great investment that I can pass to my daughter.

Atlas Original Pasta Mchine
The images I include here is what most appealing to me. Both have a great reviews but too pricey for my taste...lol. The top image is Imperia Pasta Maker and Chromium plated steel. The second one is Atlas Original Italian Pasta Machine, this one is stainless steel. And yes, extra attachment is sold separately. Both pasta maker is over $85, plus the extra attachment to make different kind of pasta. Both came with spaghetti and linguine/fettuccine. Maybe I should settle for the cheap one, then I can buy all the attachment I like and comes out to be the same price.

Decisions, I don't like making them, it's too hard.

Paksiw & Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Image
This is my FTF entry for this week. Paksiw (sour broth) frozen baby bonito (tulingan). I settled for frozen ones, because this is very hard to find in my area. Always eaten with ton of rice...lol I don't have any other vegetables to mix with it but the pepper. I was lazy to go out (shopping) with the heat we are having. And for dessert; strawberry banana smoothie. I was weeding my vegetable garden today and I was sweating a lot. What a nice drink to have! Very filling (sweet) and refreshing after soaking under a hot sun. For more FTF images, just follow the image below.

Mango Float

Image
They are in season now a days. I am talking about mostly any fruits. Here is my version of mango float that similar Filipino goes gaga about. Like I mentioned in my previous post, the sugar in this recipe is the killer. I can have this maybe once a year and I still prefer just plain mango anytime. This one was taken after a few hours in the freezer. You can see the cream and milk mixture are still runny. This one is taken the next day, when frozen. It turns out that DH love it. The only complaint he got was the taste is not even. He still wanted to make ice cream with the same ingredients. I can't wait to see how it would taste.
