Fresh Egg Pasta-Gluten Free
- 1/2 cup tapioca flour
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons potato starch
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum
- 3 large eggs (or 4 or 5 egg whites)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- In a medium bowl, combine flours, salt, and xanthan gum.
- Beat the eggs lightly and add the oil.
- Pour the egg-oil liquid into the flour mixture and stir.
- This will feel much like pastry dough.
- Work the dough into a firm ball.
- Knead for 1 or two minutes.
- Place the ball of dough on a potato starch-floured (rice flour turns noodles gray) breadboard and roll as**thin as possible**.
- This dough is tough and, when almost transparent, will still handle well.
- Cut into desired shape.
- For fettuccine and spaghetti, slice very thin strips.
- For a noodle casserole, make slightly wider noodles.
- If using for lasagne, cut into 1 1/2-by-4-inch rectangles.
- To cook pasta: Cook in salted boiling water, to which 1 tablespoon of oil has been added, for about 10 to 12 minutes depending on the thickness and size of your pieces.
- You will have to test for doneness.
- Drain and rinse well.
