Marcato Atlas Pasta Drying Rack

Ron Kerr — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 04:27:54 +0000

Made by the Marcato family in Italy, the Tacopasta drying rack is an essential tool for making fresh pasta. The closeable pasta drying rack with retractable base in chrome-plated steel and polycarbonate is a sturdy well designed piece. The rack includes a "wand" that allows you to easily transfer pasta from the machine to the rack. Folds for convenient storage. The wand conveniently stores in the center tube of the drying rack.

Even the longest fresh fettuccine or linguine won't touch the counter when draped on the arms of this sturdy pasta drying rack. The rack stands 16-1/2 inches high, including a heavy, stable, 7/8-inch-thick base. Assembly (and disassembly for storage) is simple. The 3/4-inch center post screws into the base. Four 18-inch dowels then slide through holes in the post, providing eight arms--cunningly angled so they don't interfere with one another--on which to hang fresh pasta to dry before going into the pot, refrigerator, or freezer. As is traditional, the rack is made of unfinished wood so pasta strands don't slide off. --Fred Brack
