If a trip to Italy doesn’t fit in your budget, don’t fret. You can make your own fresh pasta at home. This gourmet pasta press KitchenAid attachment makes it easy to whip up six shapes of pasta: spaghetti, bucatini, rigatoni, fusilli and large or small macaroni. To use the attachment, just connect it to your stand mixer’s power hub and add your favorite homemade pasta dough. The mixer’s motor will force the dough through the press, creating the selected pasta shape. All you need to do is trim the pasta with the built-in wire cutter once it reaches your desired length. To learn more, read our Executive Culinary Director’s review. By the way, do you know the most popular KitchenAid color in your state?

Freshly baked bread is one of life’s simplest pleasures. And now you can make it any time a craving strikes—with less mess. The bread bowl KitchenAid attachment is an all-in-one vessel that allows you to mix, knead, proof and bake in the same bowl. Plus, the included lid creates a miniature steam oven that yields crispy on the outside, soft on the inside loaves. One of our editors tested the bread bowl—and was very impressed. It’s a bread baking essential!

Since this attachment relies on your mixer’s power hub (as opposed to manual labor!), it’s the perfect pick for a dish that requires a lot of spiralized veggies, like these Tequila Lime Shrimp Zoodles.

Buying pre-ground grains at the store can get expensive. Plus, you’re taking a gamble that the oat flour you picked out is still fresh. Luckily, there’s a better way. This grain mill KitchenAid attachment makes it easy to mill your own grains. Simply connect the attachment to your mixer’s power hub, pick a whole grain (such as corn, rice or wheat) and choose a grind consistency level. Then, feed the grain through the chute and let the machine work its magic. This attachment is a game-changer for bread bakers. (Just like this cast-iron bread pan.)
