I know how to make egg noodles, and I either roll them out or use my pasta machine with the fettuccine cutter. This gives me flat egg noodles. I like the curly ones that I buy at the store for some dishes. Is there a technique I can use to make my homemade noodles curly when I want them to be curly? To clarify, I would like them curly at the edges, but still mostly flat, similar to most of the wide egg noodles in the store.

You can curl them at home with a little effort.. Cut your pasta into ribbons and then cut those ribbons into smaller ribbons. Let them dry for just a little while (not so dry that they have lost all moisture) and then pull them gently, twisting them slightly as you do. Let them dry again to set and you should have what you're looking for.

Do you mean this Lasagna Doppia Riccia at the bottom?

Make sheets of pasta, cut to size then use a butter paddle or gnocchi board to indent just the edges.

For all sorts of pasta shapes, see Manu's Menu website
