08 / Just a lil nest of pappardelle for your Friday. Anybody out there know the proper way to pronounce this pasta name? https://t.co/xEEcupcMyj

This shrimpy cocoon is my attempt at tortelli piacentini. This is the first one where I didn’t fold the paper version exactly as it would be folded if it were pasta dough. There’s a beautiful weaving action for this with dough which translates to a big c… https://t.co/3CPqrKPxUc

06 / Fusi Istriani comes from Istria in Friuli and are pros at picking up ragu. I’ve fallen down a rabbit hole of a niche part of Instagram: pasta making, pastaios (professional pasta makers), and mesmerizing videos of pillowy doughs being formed into ar… https://t.co/fSQHd7RCfT

05 / Sacchetti. Literal meaning: “little sack”! What’s your favorite pasta shape? 👛 https://t.co/MeqNgT6m84

04 / Garganelli. An egg-based pasta from Emilia-Romagna (where Bologna is located). I’ve spent a good chunk of the afternoon watching very satisfying pasta tutorials (read: drooling). See some making bts in stories! https://t.co/X0lbbzovqT

03 / Radiatore. I keep making these right around sunset and trying to eke out a shot in the last moments of natural light. 🤦‍♀️ https://t.co/BjwdBwBFNQ

02 / The most dramatic tortellini. I watched videos on how to fold real tortellini and applied that to paper! I’m hungry now. https://t.co/iMYK09uC8O

A bit late, but will y’all still let me in on inktober (though in my case it will be papertober)? I’d like to propose 31 paper...pastas! First up, farfalle, a personal fave🤵 I realized today that I’m in need of something to keep me making each day. S… https://t.co/FsOyYV3WxL

11 / A tiny tater tot-like mini cake today. Keeping things simple. https://t.co/F7yshrzLOg

09 / A rounded cake! I’m craving something earl grey flavored, maybe with some lavender? (That’s my go-to flavor combo from @biritesf creamery’s ice cream line up!).

08 / Drippy caramel, anyone? This one inspired by @thepolkadotter, who appears to be an expert caramel dripper (in addition to excellent baker and photographer).

Still figuring out how to make things glossy, and I’m liking this one! I got a DM f… https://t.co/D0oFwYKgoK

07 / Apricot frangipane tart, for the one summery day we’re getting in San Francisco today! This geometric form inspired by a shot on @thebakefeed. •

Experimenting with using a little acetate to make the glaze look glossy. Not very happy with the w… https://t.co/5Yjz67e6a0

02 / Jon lives in the Mission. @tartinebakery also lives in the Mission. Once in a while Jon brings over a treat from his neighborhood bakery that is Tartine and makes me the happiest person in MY neighborhood. On this occasion, it was the lemon tart, wi… https://t.co/mtsUxHviAo

01 / To celebrate one year of working independently AND for my version of #inktober (shall we say...#maketober? s/o @t_rez for that one), I’ll be making daily paper cakes this month. I’m looking forward to experimenting with lots of delicious texture. I’… https://t.co/r5C3My9o2Z
