Thanks for the PING!
Fantastico!
Of all the food my grandmother made (and it was alot of food!), she never did home-made pasta...
Where she lived, she didn’t have to. I remember one of the main pasta-making stores on 9th St, D’Orazio’s, distributed to grocery chains all over the place, even down in Maryland. Two nice little nonnas ran the counter in the store, and probably started the store, but their sons created the distribution network.
