Fresh Pasta – Gluten Free

 

Fresh Pasta (Gluten Free)

I had to come up with this recipe when I was diagnosed with Coeliac’s disease in 2010! I wasn’t going to be forced to use what was on the shelves in the stores, so had to research and get creative.  This pasta is relatively simple to make, just mix the dough by hand, in a food processor or stand mixer, let it rest for 20 minutes and get to work rolling, and if you wish, cutting. 

Category: Basics
Style: Gluten Free, Italian
Keyword: Gluten Free Pasta
Quantity: 4
Author: sbaskitchen
Ingredients
  • 120 g quinoa flour
  • 80 g corn flour
  • 60 g potato starch/flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp xanthum gum
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 160g eggs, fresh (approximately 3 large eggs)
  • extra quinoa flour for dusting
Instructions
  1. Mix the dry ingredients together in the bowl of a food processor, or stand mixer, to combine.

  2. In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the eggs.
  3. Add the egg mix to the dry ingredients and mix until the dough comes together - the final dough should be firm, but pliable - add a little more egg if too firm.

  4. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and allow it to sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.

  5. Divide dough into 6 pieces and, working with a piece at a time, flatten then roll through a pasta machine, starting on the widest setting and dusting with flour as necessary.

  6. Fold and repeat until pasta is smooth, (this may require a little practice and patience!) then continue rolling, reducing the settings a notch each time, until you reach the desired thickness

  7. Cut the dough for fettucine, spaghetti, etc, or use the sheets to make ravioli, agnalotti, lasagne, cannelloni, etc.
Notes
  • Use quinoa flour for dusting to prevent the pasta sticking to the pasta machine.
  • COOKING TIME
    (also depends on how thick your pasta is)
    Fettucine 4-5 minutes
    Spaghettie 3-4 minutes
    Ravioli 5-6 miutes

Yintarini Farm and SBA’s Kitchen are excited to bring you a series of sustainability inspired workshops, to be held throughout 2026. Each workshop will equip you with new skills, and the confidence, to help you pursue a more self-sufficient lifestyle.

Be inspired to grow what you eat and cook what your grow. Discover the joy of using the freshest of produce from YIntarini Farm and The Garden at Tranquility, complemented by products from the shelves of SBA’s Kitchen at Home, and local Gippsland producers where available, to prepare delicious dishes for all to enjoy.

Tour the gardens of Yintarini Farm with Lucy, learn of her plans for the future, and get some dirt under your nails as she shows you how she grows from scratch, using both cuttings, and the seeds saved from previous crops. Yes, there will be take-homes!

In the kitchen learn new skills and discover new recipes with Julie, from SBA’s Kitchen and The Garden at Tranquility, as you work together to preserve some tomatoes, make some flavour bombs, and freshly made pasta, all key ingredients used as we prepare a hearty lunch to share, throughout the day, while we take breaks to sit chat and relax.

This is a hands-on session, where you will learn new skills, enjoy delicious food, meet new folk, and have a little fun. At the end of the day, you will leave the farm with recipes for all dishes prepared, the plants/seeds from the propagation session, a jar each of the preserves from the preserving session, a little fresh pasta to cook at home, and any leftovers, if any, from the meal enjoyed throughout the day.

All of this, and the inspiration to take what you’ve learned, home to your garden and kitchen.

This is strictly a small group session and there are only 8 places available, so if you want to come along, we recommend booking early.

Bacon & Eggs!

It’s been all about pasta lately. You see, I have a new stand mixer purchased after the one that my mum and dad gave us for a wedding present finally decided enough was enough after 35 years of constant use!  In addition to purchasing the new mixer we also purchased some of the attachments to go with it – namely the pasta roller and the tagliatelle cutter – I was just a little excited!

I also have a new pasta tree, I used to hang my pasta on the handles of wooden spoons and rolling pins precariously balanced on objects around the kitchen, as it was rolled

Giant Broccoli

At the beginning of this year I planted broccoli, both the Purple Sprouting, and the pretty lime green Romanesco varieties. The plants grew… and they grew… and they grew… They were massive, but no flowers appeared, just more leaves and they got taller. I was getting ready to pull them out and send them over to Maggie’s chooks, when someone mentioned that dumping some ash from the fire around them may spur them into flowering mode. Continue reading
