Not giving up! Thanks for sharing the mom memories.

I followed the recipe. Watched every bit of footage from the infomercial, instructional vhs, and a few people using it on YouTube. What I learned is the dough must have to be super dry. What I made was way too sticky. Dusting in more flour helped a little. It was getting late so I shut it down.
I scooped out the dough that was stuck, made a couple balls with it, then made a biscuit out of one and flattened and sliced the other.
Pic is of the biscuit I cooked in the air fryer, and the “pasta” that came out of the machine.
I had Parmesan and butter in a pan that got ignored because I was having such a hard time with the dough sticking in the machine so it burnt up but I still mixed the noodles in it because I’m not picky.
I don’t know what the noodles are supposed to be called (gnocchi?) but I swapped discs to a thick one because nothing was extruding. After adding at least 3 tablespoons more flour to the mix, this is what came out. I plated it all in a 10+ year-old Mr Lid.
I’ve learned a bit and will try again.
