3. Fill the transparent cylinder of the press with the prepared dough. Do not overfill.
4. Attach the bottom cap with the passatelli disc securely.
5. Turn the handle clockwise to press the dough through the disc. The dough will emerge in strands.
6. Use a knife to cut the passatelli to your desired length as they emerge, directly into boiling broth or onto a floured surface.
