Italian Christmas Eve

We had some friends over on Christmas Eve and in the spirit of holiday colors, decided to make home-made spinach (green) pasta with arrabiata (red) sauce.

Flour is mixed with spinach liquid to start.

Kneaded.

Rolled into thin sheets.

And pressed through the linguini cutter. Apparently we do this so fast we all turn out blurry in photos.

Then whip out the clothes hangers. And finally boil for 3 minutes.

Exhausting work for some...

The gingerbread man looked awesome. Tasted only so-so.

Merry Christmas to all!
