Re: Basic Fresh Pasta

Hi,

Is there any way to alter this recipe so it is wheat free please? I'd love to make some!

Thank you smile

Hi there,

You could try using Buckwheat Flour - which is wheat and gluten free, makes good pasta and is quite dark in colour, there is a recipe here: http://www.dovesfarm.co.uk/recipes/pizzoccheri/

Otherwise, some Gluten Free Plain White or Rice Flour - and try adding in a teaspoon of Xanthan Gum to create more stretch in the dough. You might also like to add some olive oil in with the eggs as GF flour is more absorbent.

Good luck! Let us know how you get on!
