At a glance
The Kenwood Fettuccine Pasta Cutter Attachment is ideal for home cooks who want to make authentic, fresh fettuccine pasta using their Kenwood stand mixer. It delivers consistent 6.5mm wide pasta ribbons and is easy to attach, use, and clean. Best suited for Kenwood mixer owners, its main limitation is that it requires a separate lasagne roller attachment to prepare the pasta sheets.

Q: Which Kenwood mixers is the KAX981ME fettuccine cutter compatible with?
A: It suits Kenwood mixers with the slow-speed Twist Connection System, including many newer Chef and kMix models. It is not for every older Kenwood, so check that your machine has the twist-style front hub before buying.
Q: Does the Kenwood KAX981ME roll pasta dough as well as cut it?
A: No. The KAX981ME is a fettuccine cutter, so it cuts rolled pasta sheets into ribbons but does not flatten dough itself. To start from dough, a separate pasta roller attachment is needed before feeding the sheet through this cutter.
Q: How wide is the pasta cut by the Kenwood fettuccine attachment?
A: It cuts classic fettuccine ribbons, which are typically about 6.5mm wide on this Kenwood attachment. That width sits between spaghetti and tagliatelle, so it suits cream, butter or lighter tomato sauces without becoming too heavy.
Q: Is this attachment for fresh pasta dough or for extruded pasta shapes?
A: This attachment is for fresh pasta sheets, not for extruding hollow or shaped pasta from dough. If you want shapes such as macaroni or rigatoni, a pasta extruder is the better match, because this model only cuts flat rolled sheets.
Q: Is the Kenwood KAX981ME suitable for making larger home batches of pasta?
A: Yes. It is better suited to regular home batches than hand cutting because the mixer powers the cutter for more even ribbons. The trade-off is that you still feed one pasta sheet at a time, and sheet width is limited to the matching roller size.
