Instructions To Make Pasta Using Purefetta Pasta Flour Blend
INGREDIENTS
To prepare 1 lb. of pasta, approximately 4 to 6 servings, use the following ingredients:
- 2 cups of Purefetta Pasta Flour Blend
- 2/3 cup of water
DIRECTIONS
1. Heat 2/3 cup of water to 100-110 degrees.
2. Combine the warm water and Purefetta Pasta Flour Blend in a bowl.
3. Stir with a whisk for one to two minutes until the dough starts sticking and begins turning into small crumbles.
4. Hand knead the dough until it feels firm enough to roll out or place in a pasta machine.
5. If the dough feels dry, add more warm water, one teaspoon at a time.
6. Roll out the dough using a rolling pin or pasta machine.
7. Cut your pasta shapes.
8. Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil.
9. Add salt.
10. Add your pasta to the water and cook for two to three minutes. Start sampling at 2 minutes.
11. Strain pasta and serve with your favorite pasta sauce.
TIPS
1. Since there is no gluten in Purefetta Pasta Flour Blend, you can re-knead the flour multiple times without any concern of the flour breaking down. Feel free to experiment making numerous pasta shapes.
2. In order to reduce sticking, use Purefetta Pasta Flour Blend to cover the surface on which pasta will be kneaded and rolled out to prevent sticking.
3. Instead of continuing to cook the pasta until al dente, consider cooking the pasta in water initially for 1 to 2 minutes and finishing it off in the sauce for a minute or so.
4. When using a pasta machine, please clean immediately, being sure to clean off any remaining dough. Have your favorite cleaning utensil(s) nearby to assist in reaching hard to reach places.
