I've already made a batch of 'faux' ricotta cheese - saw the recipe in a cooking mag and just HAD to try it. I've never been a big fan of ricotta but it's an essential for lasagna and considering my recent forays into homemade pasta, I figured I should try it. Easy recipe.... now draining in the fridge until tomorrow. Guess that means I'll be making lasagna sometime this weekend.
Speaking of lasagna, I DID buy the pasta attachment for my KitchenAid stand mixer - it came today.... cant WAIT to try it. It should make the whole pasta-rolling process much easier and quicker. The only thing is that the gradations on the roller go from 1 - 8 and the thickness levels are just backwards from the old hand-crank model I WAS using. Will just have to remember that when it's time.
Haven't decided whether it's my (last) bowl of 'chili stew' tonight or a chicken pie I made with last night's roast chicken. EITHER is gonna be awesome!
