Perhaps one of the biggest misconceptions about making homemade pasta is that you need an arsenal of expensive tools to do it. But this couldn’t be further from the truth. If you’re new to pasta-making, know that you can whip up delicious noodles with what you already have in your kitchen. Of course, that isn’t to say I don’t cherish my own collection of hand-crafted ravioli stamps and brass pasta cutters, or that there aren’t a few handy items I’d recommend to get started.

Homemade pasta can be intimidating but trust me: It’s much simpler than you think. Fresh pasta dough is as easy as mixing flour and eggs — and then comes the rolling. If you’re new to using a pasta machine, there may be a slight learning curve, but it’s easy to get the hang of things.

The first loaf of bread I ever made, when I was 10 or 11 years old in the '90s, emerged from a bread machine. With its pale crust, squashed crumb, and lumpy shape, it wouldn’t have fared well on Instagram. But that didn’t stop my brother and me from devouring it, piping hot right out of the appliance and spread thickly with Country Crock margarine.

I live in Southern California, which means the only snow I get each winter comes in the form of cookies. Crinkle cookies, to be specific, their exterior covered in a white blanket of confectioners’ sugar, with a crackled surface that resembles tree roots peeking through the snow-covered ground.
