The pasta dough, laid out on the strings, is cut by passing a rolling pin over it, which presses it against the wires. The resulting spaghetti or tagliatelle is square-sectioned, just the right amount of roughness to better hold the sauce.<\/p>\n<p>Being \u201cdouble\u201d, this guitar offers two cutting formats in a single tool: simply rotate the frame to switch from tagliatelle to spaghetti to chitarra, without the need for two separate tools.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"materiali-e-formati\">Materials and formats<\/h2>\n<p>The strings are made of food-safe stainless steel, while the frame is made of sturdy beech wood, resistant to frequent use. This double pasta maker is available in sizes 37x20x9 cm and 42x22x9 cm, suitable for both home and more intensive use, such as in a small catering business.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"come-si-usa-la-chitarra-doppia-per-pasta\">How to use the double pasta maker<\/h2>\n<p>Simply roll out the fresh pasta sheet over the taut strings and pass the rolling pin over it with light pressure: the strings will do the rest, cutting the pasta into regular strands that fall ready-made onto the surface below.<\/p>\n<p>An ancient, simple, and effective method: with a quality double pasta maker, all you need is a well-rolled sheet of pasta and a good dose of practice to achieve results worthy of true master pasta makers.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"perche-il-legno-di-faggio\">Why beech wood?<\/h2>\n<p>Beech is one of the most commonly used woods for Italian kitchen utensils: its fine, compact grain makes it resistant to daily wear and tear, and it&#039;s free of natural resins or oils that could release unwanted odors or flavors when in contact with food. It&#039;s no coincidence that it&#039;s the wood historically chosen by artisans in Piedmont and the Ossola Valley, areas with a long tradition of crafting this type of utensils.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"come-curare-gli-utensili-in-legno\">How to care for wooden tools<\/h2>\n<p>Unlike plastic or metal utensils, wooden ones require a little extra care: they should be hand-washed in warm water, avoiding prolonged soaking, which could cause the wood fibers to swell, and dried immediately after use. Occasionally, it&#039;s helpful to treat them with a light coating of cooking oil, such as vegetable oil or Vaseline, to nourish the wood and prevent it from drying out or cracking over time.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"artigianalita-made-in-italy\">Craftsmanship Made in Italy<\/h2>\n<p>Many of the wooden kitchen utensils produced in Italy are still made in small artisan workshops, where machine processing is combined with manual inspections and finishing. This approach allows any wood defects to be identified and eliminated before sale, ensuring a solid and safe product for everyday food use.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"un-attrezzo-che-dura-nel-tempo\">A tool that lasts over time<\/h2>\n<p>With proper care, a quality wooden utensil can last a kitchen for many years, unlike some plastic utensils that tend to deteriorate more quickly with frequent dishwasher cleaning. A modest investment that, over time, pays off in durability and the pleasure of using a tool designed to last.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"un-regalo-per-chi-ama-cucinare\">A gift for those who love to cook<\/h2>\n<p>Wooden pasta tools are also a popular gift idea for those who love spending time in the kitchen: simple to use, they require no electricity or complex maintenance, and allow you to rediscover manual skills that are often passed down from one generation to the next in families.<\/p>\n<p>Discover the other tools in the category <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporinostri.it\/en\/utensili-cucina\/altro\/\">Kitchen utensils<\/a> and the proposals of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporinostri.it\/en\/brands\/panetta\/\">Panetta<\/a>.
