The 8 Best Tools for Making Fresh Pasta at Home

The mezzaluna: the knife your food processor will never replace.

The chitarra: the pasta cutter that is also, technically, a musical instrument.

The terracotta pot: slow, heavy, irreplaceable.

The tomato press: a machine, a ritual, and a family obligation.

The rotary grater: because parmigiano deserves better than a box grater.

A kitchen scale: the only tool that is correct every time.
