Weston Roma Deluxe Electric Pasta Machine - Manual (Page 7)

CLEANING
NOTE: Clean the Pasta Machine before using
the unit for the first time and after each use.
For first time use, you will need to pass a small quantity
of pasta dough through the Smooth Rollers and both
Cutting Rollers. This will give you a feel of how your
Pasta Machine operates, and will clean any debris from
the Rollers.
1. Connect the Pasta Machine to the power source and
turn the Power Switch to the ‘II’ slow position. Figure 1
2. Slowly insert a piece of dough through the Smooth
Rollers, then through the Cutters. Repeat this process
several times. Discard the dough when the unit is
clean.
Figure 2
Follow the “Using the Pasta Machine”
instuctions in this booklet for more information.
3. Set the Power Switch to ‘O’ off. Unplug the cord from
the power source. Figure 1
4. Set the Adjustment Knob to setting ‘1’, so the Smooth
Rollers are as far apart as possible for cleaning.
Figure 3
5. Using the provided Cleaning Brush, or a clean, small,
soft brush, clean any bits of dough that remain in the
Cutter Rollers or the Smooth Rollers. If the dough does
not brush out easily, wait until the dough dries.
NOTE: Do not insert your fingers, knives, utensils
or any cloth between the Rollers. This may result
in personal injury or unit damage.
6. Use a soft, damp cloth to clean all other surfaces of
the Pasta Machine. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on
the unit.
7. NEVER immerse the Pasta Machine in water or other
liquids. The Pasta Machine is NOT dishwasher safe.

TO MAKE RAVIOLI
1. Follow steps 1 through 14 of the “Using the Pasta
Machine Instructions” as if you were preparing pasta
dough for machine cutting.
2. Place the sheets of pasta on a pastry board and use
the Adjustable Wheel Pasta Cutter to cut squares of
pasta for ravioli.
Figure 11
3. Place a small portion of your favorite ravioli filling
onto half of the pasta squares. Using a narrow pastry
brush, or your finger, moisten the edges of the filled
squares. Cover each with another pasta square. Seal
the edges by pressing them together firmly with your
thumb and fingers.
4. Let the ravioli dry for 2 hours before cooking.
5. Bring 6 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot; add
salt if desired. Drop the ravioli into the water and boil
for 5-6 minutes. Stir gently with a wooden spoon to keep
them from sticking to one another.
6. Carefully lift the ravioli out of the boiling water with a
skimmer or strainer and place them on a warm platter.
7. Drizzle your favorite pasta sauce and sprinkle with
finely grated Parmesan, Romano or Asiago cheese, if
desired.
