Abstract

A pasta making accessory includes a base for placement upon a table or counter top, an elongated hollow tubular post supported at a bottom end on the base and extending upright therefrom to a top open end, the tubular post an interior storage cavity extending between the bottom and top ends, and elongated pasta drying sticks adapted to be removably placed and stored during non-use in a closely packed relationship with one another in the elongated interior cavity of the tubular post. The tubular post has a plurality of pairs of holes defined about an upper portion of the tubular post for removably mounting therethrough at inner ends the plurality of pasta drying sticks. The drying sticks extend outwardly from and about the tubular post in a radial and helical path so as to provide sufficient space between the drying sticks to facilitate draping of freshly extruded pasta strips thereover for proper drying thereof.
