Modern industry produces a variety of types of household appliances, designed to facilitate the work of the hostess in the kitchen. These are combines, blenders, dishwashers, etc. One of such useful devices is the noodles cutter - a rather rare guest in Russian cuisines.
However, this equipment has been deprived of attention in vain. This is actually a handy tool. In any case, he will not remain idle. Manual noodles are used not only for making noodles, but also for rolling dough layers of different thicknesses. Thus, it is very easy to obtain the starting material for the preparation of ravioli or dumplings.
All housewives know how difficult it is to roll thin plates of dough for the same noodles or, say, beshbarmak. Using such an interesting tool as a manual noodle cutter, this process can be simplified significantly. All that is needed is to knead the dough of the desired composition and knead it slightly, making the piece flat. After that, it is inserted into the first compartment of the device and runs through it. In this case, you just need to twist the handle, as, say, when using a manual meat grinder.
The result is a plate of dough. Its thickness can be adjusted by special settings, which are provided in many models of such tools as manual noodles. In other designs, to obtain a thin layer, it is necessary to drive it through the machine 3 times.
Then the dough prepared in this way, if you want to make homemade noodles, is dried and passed through the second compartment, where it is sliced. In this case, the machine has two modes: for strips of dough with a width of 2 and 4 mm.
As you can see, everything is extremely simple. No need to roll out the dough for hours and do the tedious work of slicing it. Everything is done in a few minutes with the help of such a simple mechanism to use as manual noodle cutter. You can buy a similar machine both in large hardware stores and on the Internet. Finding places where it is sold, if desired, is not so difficult.
In servicing this kitchen equipment is also not very difficult. These machines are made of stainless chrome steel. And so they are very easy to wipe. The only point: manufacturers are not advised to wash them under running water. The rotating elements of the machine are lubricated with liquid paraffin.
Manual noodle cutter is characterized by high strength and reliability of the mechanism. One of the elements of its design is most often rollers made of a special aluminum alloy that does not oxidize upon contact with water. They need to be cleaned quite often.
In addition to the manual versions of this kitchen equipment, there are also electric ones. In use, they, of course, are much more convenient, but at a price slightly higher.
Noodles, reviews of the hostesses about which are mostly positive, can cost from 1000 to 5000 rubles, depending on the functionality and the country of manufacture. Italian models have a higher price. You can buy a fairly cheap Russian model.
Homemade noodles - the product is certainly much more delicious than the store. Moreover, it can be done with minimal labor and time. All that is needed is to purchase a manual or electric noodle cutter.
