I leave you with an excerpt from the text of Anna Mayer’s prologue so that you can definitely buy it:

Fresh pasta has a halo of magic and mystery, including epic tales of heroic grandmothers who rose at dawn to knead, stretch and fold hundreds of tortellini; Perfect and impossible to replicate familiar episodes of tagliatelle and rollers to spread the pasta that pass from generation to generation perfectly calibrated.

In the late 1990s, I heard about the Sorelle Simili for the first time: some friends from Bologna had signed up for one of their famous
fresh pasta courses and kept praising the wonders of these two sisters and their technical expertise. I tried, without success, to extract tricks and advice from them, but that had to be seen in person, they said. I don’t know if they really believed it or if it was to get more benefit, in the form of prestige, from the course they had paid, but they didn’t tell me anything else. Of course, it was clear that the pilgrimage to the Simili sisters’ school was the answer that would complete a childhood without grandmothers who made pasta.

I started making pasta at home, just following the recommendations of the Simili sisters in this book, which I bought years ago in the Italian version. This Spanish version, faithful to the original, is sure to help many to start making pasta. The firm and at
the same time sweet words of Margherita and Valeria Simili are clear and inspiring: it is one of those not very common cookbooks that makes you want to go to the kitchen with each recipe and start cooking . ”
