Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Strainer
  • Mixing bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 1 tsp Xanthan gum
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Ground black pepper

Instructions
 

Step 1 – Prepare the Pasta Dough

  • Combine almond flour, xanthan gum, and salt in a mixing bowl.
  • Make a well in the center, add the egg and olive oil.
  • Mix thoroughly until a dough forms.
  • “Getting your hands dirty here is not just recommended, it’s essential! The best pasta dough comes from getting up close and personal with your ingredients.”

Step 2 – Roll and Cut the Dough

  • Dust a clean surface with a bit of almond flour.
  • Roll the dough out to your desired thickness.
  • Cut into strips or desired shapes.
  • “Remember, perfection is a myth in the kitchen. Rustic and homemade is the charm of it!”

Step 3 – Cook the Pasta

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Cook pasta for 3-4 minutes or until al dente.
  • Drain and set aside.
  • “Al dente – that magical term that means ‘to the tooth’. It’s what separates the amateurs from the seasoned cooks!”

Notes

  • Ensure the water is boiling before adding your keto pasta to avoid sticking.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pot; cook in batches if necessary.
