Moleskins,
Your offer may be a bit premature as you haven't tried the pie yet but I must say it was very good.

I made a chocolate guinness cake yesterday which is lovely too.

I'll marry you...... but I think my husband would have something to say about that

Why, doesn't he like lemon meringue pie ?

I'm a Kitchen Aid fan, much prefer it to the Kenwood Chef I used to have. It seems to whisk better IMO.

Well if you've eaten it, that's it, the weddings off.

My next wife will be able to drive, shop quickly and enjoy making lemon meringue pie
and pancakes with lemon and sugar. Not necessarily in that order and not necessarily
the full list.

V Jelous - love the look of Kitchen aid... But I have a Kenwood, probably because my mother had a Kenwood (40 years old and still going strong)

. It IS fab, but not pretty

.
I can vouch for KA customer service though - I bought one of their Molten cast iron pans from TK MAx (in the days when I was near such shops!). The enamel exploded off the bottom after a couple of cooks, I couldnt find my reciept and they still replaced it.

V Happy. Now I have a knackered one which I use outside on open fires and a tidy one for the stove.

I want this!!!

http://www.simac-pastamatic.co.uk/

Have very fond memories of my mum's one, when we used to make lots of different shapes of pasta on Sundays.

The price on the UK website is ridiculous (£263), but I found on ama zon is about £50 cheaper and on the Italian is even better at ~£140!
That's the way to go

Now, when is Xmas/my next birthday??

Bionic · « **Reply #23 on:** September 07, 2012, 05:05:54 pm »

Wow, that looks good but think that maybe I am too lazy to use one.
I do have a pasta making machine though (the sort that you roll the dough through several times) I got it on freecycle so can't complain but have only used it a couple of times.

Bionic, getting one of those pasta machines is actually the point for who's too lazy to make it by hand!!

I have the Kenwood chef. I like having a lid on the mixer bowl because I 'scite' things all over the place.

Does the Kitchenaid bowl have a lid?

How about being argumentative?

Mine came with a sort of plastic thing that fits round the rim. Not exactly a lid in the usual meaning of the word but I guess thats what it is. It certainly stops flour and stuff from going all over the place.
