Because when I got my pasta machine, Martino, the recipe in the accompanying booklet was just flour and eggs. That's why! But now I know different I will experiment.

Yes it is strange how they do it with eggs in the booklets. I suppose it is to make you think that using your maker there is a big difference.

Pasta means pastry and pastry of course can have eggs added but it is not the norm.

I am sure there are thousand of recipes on the web for pasta but this thread was about vegan dishes and if it has cleared up a misunderstanding that vegans cannot eat pasta then it makes it worthwhile.

How great to see this subject carring on. I posted a silly comment on the 26TH Feb whilst waiting for the euorstar to take me back to London. Today I am doing the same so I thought Id have a quick look and see what happening. Well done to you all and I still cant eat a whole vegan in one sitting.
