Found GFVegan pasta (non-rice & non-corn too)!!!

[Guest guest]

I'm soooooooooo very excited to say that the other day when shopping at a

" regular " local supermarket I stumbled upon a gf, kosher, acceptable for

passover, vegan pasta noodle!!!! The ingredients are as follows...potato

starch, potato flour, salt, and beta carotene!!!! I found macaroni style and

thin noodles. The brands is Gefen and the manu is Kenover Marketing Corp out of

Brooklyn, NY. I'm outside of Chicago. I called Kenover and asked if this was a

temp item but they said was a permanent item. When looking at their site it

does state it has eggs in the ingredients so that is why I called to see if it

was a temp thing.

 

Very excited I no longer have to make my own pasta!!! And does anyone know what

the beta carotene does...why is it an ingredient?

Pasta machines are very fun!!! But its sooo nice to have boxed pasta on hand!

The very first pasta I made turned out really nice but didn't taste great. That

recipe is on my blog. The original recipe I've been working off of was found on

Bob's Red Mill site under their list of gluten free pasta recipes. It was the

only one without eggs (and gluten free). It called for rice and I changed it

from rice to sorghum (which I wouldn't suggest...it was too grainy of a

texture).

 

Now I use a mix of tapioca starch (I think) and for sure fava/banzo flour, a bit

of sugar, pear juice, oil and water. I'll make it again in the next few days

and tell you what the exact ingredients are. I've been playing around for quite

some time to get a good taste. But since recently tasting rice pasta my

homemade pasta seems to taste better! But in the mean time check out Bob's site

or my really old posts on my blog and you can get the amounts and come up with

your own ingredients. HTH's!

it adds the yellowish colour so it looks like wheat pasta.

It not only adds colour, it's a form of vitamin A. It's good for you!

Another possibility for gf vegan corn-free rice-free pastas is

bean-thread noodles, found at an Asian market. My Asian market also

carries a number of other kinds of noodles made from arrowroot, yam,

tapioca, or others.

from yam and other from soy. still havent used

them....last time they were unpleasantly slippery

but i was told to pour boiling water on them

before adding sauce, and will try that this time.

Awwwwwwww!!! Thank you!!!! Yes, they are my lil buggers! Love em sooo!

 

Actually, I did make my first gf " ravioli " type pasta the other day when I

adapted a pastry recipe..which was WAY easier then I thought. First I lightly

fried it in the pan and then the rest of the dough I made " ravioli's " with and

boiled them. It was pretty good. I'm sure you could use any gfvegan pasta

recipe and roll it out. I do not have any attachment...just my hands lol! I

did search for one though but was unsuccessful.
