Shop Lee Valley Marcato Pasta Extruder

To expand your pasta-making repertoire, this device lets you create fresh, homemade bucatini, fusilli, rigatoni and two sizes of macaroni without the tricky, time-consuming process of forming them by hand.

Simply cranking the handle turns an internal auger screw, forcing your dough through one of the interchangeable dies to form distinctive traditional patterns. With surprisingly little time and effort, you can produce any amount needed, yielding professional-looking pasta with uniform details.

It comes with a steel slicer wire for cutting the noodles to the desired length, as well as a screw clamp that lets you mount the unit firmly to a counter top for stability in use. Sturdily built from durable ABS plastic, polycarbonate and chrome-plated steel, it measures about 11 1/2″ × 5″ × 7 1/2″ and disassembles easily for cleaning by hand.

Made in Italy by a company that has been making high-quality pasta-making tools since the 1930s, this is a reliable, well-made kitchen accessory.
