3. Remove flat beater and attach dough hook. Turn to Speed 2 and knead 1 minute. Hand knead dough for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Cover with dry towel and let rest 15 minutes before extruding through KitchenAid(R) Pasta Maker attachment.
4. Note: For best results use only Flat Noodle (Plate 3), Macaroni (Plate 4) and Lasagna (Plate 5) plates with this recipe.
5. Tip: To cook pasta, Add 1 tablespoon salt and 1 tablespoon oil to 6 quarts boiling water. Gradually add pasta and continue to cook at a slow boil until pasta is "al dente" or slightly firm to the bite. Pasta floats on top of the water as it cooks, so stir occasionally to keep pasta cooking evenly. When done cooking, drain in a colander.
