I'm remembering my beautiful candele. Marc Vetri's extruded pasta recipe says to dry pasta in the refrigerator eight hours to five days. Not having a blast chiller at the time I dried the candele at room temperature. They all cracked and fell to pieces.
Edit: I wouldn't dry egg pasta, I'd just freeze it.
