Description

Imagine twirling a forkful of delicate pasta, its texture surprisingly smooth and satisfying, despite being crafted without traditional wheat flour. This unique pasta offers a delightful way to enjoy a classic comfort food while exploring alternative ingredients. Made with almond flour, this pasta brings a subtle nutty flavor that complements a variety of sauces.

And, impressively, this recipe is entirely vegan, making it an inclusive option for various dietary preferences. Each strand is a testament to the ingenuity of modern cooking, allowing you to indulge in a pasta experience that aligns with your lifestyle. Keep in mind, due to the absence of gluten, this dough is more fragile than typical pasta dough, requiring gentle handling throughout the cooking process.

Be sure to cook the pasta fully before enjoying. For a truly unforgettable meal, consider pairing this pasta with a rich and flavorful sauce. Olive oil-based sauces are an excellent choice, allowing the pasta's delicate flavor to shine.

A vibrant, homemade pesto (perhaps omitting the parmesan for a vegan version) would also be a delightful companion. Alternatively, a low-carb tomato sauce, simmered with herbs and spices, offers a familiar and comforting experience. For those seeking a creamy indulgence, a cashew cream sauce provides a velvety texture and a subtle sweetness that beautifully complements the almond flour pasta.

This pasta invites creativity and experimentation in the kitchen. Whether you're seeking a lighter alternative to traditional pasta or simply exploring new culinary horizons, this dish is sure to inspire. It's a blank canvas for your culinary imagination, ready to be transformed into a masterpiece with your favorite flavors and ingredients.

Enjoy the journey of creating and savoring this unique and delicious pasta.

Instructions

    1.
    Combine the ground flaxseed and warm water in a small dish. Set this mixture aside for 5 minutes until it thickens and congeals a little. In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, xanthan gum, and salt. Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients, and pour the apple cider vinegar in the well. Pour your congealed flax seed in the well too, and move the dry ingredients over the wet.
    2.
    Use a large wooden spoon to stir the ingredients together, as the dough will be very sticky. You shouldn’t need to add any more water, but you may if your dough seems dry. Transfer the dough to a piece of plastic wrap, and use the plastic to press the dough into a flat rectangular shape. Wrap the dough, and store it in your refrigerator for 1 hour to chill. When the dough is firm enough to roll out, lay down a sheet of parchment paper and dust it with a Keto-friendly flour.
    3.
    Gently roll the dough out to no thicker than ¼-inch. Remember, there’s no gluten in the dough, so it will have very little elasticity. Once the dough is rolled out, slice it into long, ½”-wide noodles. Carefully transfer the noodles on the parchment paper to a plate or tray to store in your refrigerator. Leave them to dry out overnight or for a total of 24 hours. After 24 hours, you can store the raw noodles in a container for up to 3 days or continue following the directions to cook them.
    4.
    Bring a pot of water to a boil on your stove. It’s recommended that you salt the water, but this is optional. Wait until the water is at a rolling boil, then add the noodles from your refrigerator to the water. They will only need to cook for about 60 seconds, then immediately remove the noodles from the water with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a serving plate. The noodles may break into halves, but they shouldn’t lose their integrity or shape. Serve them with your favorite Keto vegan pasta sauce.
