Isn't it amazing how so many memories are associated with food. Birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, parties, barbecues, or just Sunday dinner. They all conjure up images of wonderful meals shared with friends and loved ones. For me, this 'Homemade Pasta with Italian Beef Roll' does that and more. When my daughter was just a little thing, this dinner was a family project. She learned the long process of making pasta dough. The rolling and resting, more rolling and resting, until at last you have achieved the desired thickness.
