Pasta machine

The origins of pasta are linked to the tradition of wheat cultivation, already practiced at the time of the Roman Empire. Normally, the birth of pasta is attributed to Marco Polo's return from China, which took place in 1295. In reality, this mixture of cereals and water has been an essential element of Mediterranean gastronomy for several millennia. Generation after generation, the processing of wheat has been the subject of continuous improvements, which have involved grinding, preparation of the dough and subsequent cooking.
