How to Make Homemade Pasta with Chickpea Flour (Garbanzo Bean Flour)

One of the most fun things about making fresh pasta is that you can play with different kinds of flowers .

And today we're going to use chickpea flour , which gives us a pasta that's delicate in texture with little chickpea .

I nutty flavors that I find absolutely irresistible .

But chicky flour has no gluten .

And even though we are going to mix it with 00 flour , we end up with a dough that's smash less elastic than regular pasta dough .

So there are two things you need to remember .

First , you need to roll the pasta a little bit thicker than normal .

Second , once the pasta is cut , you mustn't hang it otherwise it will stretch and even break .

It's best to lay the pasta on the flat surface .

Are you ready ?

Let's make it place the chickpea flour in a large bowl , add the 00 flour to it and stirring until well blended and now make a whale in the center of the bowl and I crack the eggs into the well and add the oil .

I like to mix my dough in a large ball rather than directly on the countertop .

It's a lot easier that way and much less messy .

And now , once the eggs are well blended , you're going to beat in a circle , widening the circle gradually so that you incorporate a little bit of flour each time you want to do this slowly and gradually .

Now the dough is starting to form and gets a little stiffer .

And when we can no longer stir it with a fork , we're going to switch to our fingers about right now .

So clean the fork and then continue incorporating the rest of the flour into the dough with your fingers .

You want to incorporate all of it into the door , right ?

That looks good .

So now put a little bit of flour on your countertop , not too much and place the dough on top of it .

And now you're going to need the dough .

If you know how to need , go ahead and practice your method .

And if you don't , I will show you mine .

So holding the dough in your hands , place the dough on the countertop , press with the heel of your hands and then fold it .

And now you're going to gently press again and then pick up the door and give it a quarter turn and you repeat the reason I like to pick up the dough is so that it doesn't stick to the countertop .

So press for press and pick it up and turn it , press for press , pick it up and turn it , press for press , pick it up and turn it .

Now in the beginning , you will be a little bit slower if you don't know how to need and the dough will tend to stick to the counter .

If that happens , Sprinkle with a very small amount of flour and continue needing .

You want to add as little flour as possible while you're needing because the dough will be sticky in the beginning .

But as you need it , it will become firmer .

If you add too much flour , the dough will be too stiff .

Now , you're going to need the dough for about 8 to 10 minutes until elastic because we are working with chicky flour .

This dough might feel a little bit less elastic than normal pasta dough , which is normal .

Now , if you're a beginner , make sure you get your technique right before you accelerate .

But this speed right here is a good speed for needing .

It's been about 10 minutes and I can feel the dough is ready .

It is totally smooth and elastic .

So now place more flour on your countertop and roll the dough in it .

You want it to be well covered with a flower .

Now wrap the door in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes .

My pasta machine comes with six settings .

Number one is the widest and number six is the thinnest .

Today , we're only going to use setting one to number four .

And before you start rolling the pasta , make sure you prepare your jelly roll pan , just Sprinkle it with a little bit of similar enough flour .

What's to do has rested , uncover it and we're going to cut it in four equal parts .

We're going to work with one part at a time .

So you want to keep the other parts covered , you want to place a good amount of flour on your counter , kind of on top of your working area .

Now shape the piece of dough into a rectangle about three by six .

Try to make it as even as you can .

And now fold it in thirds like this place it on top of the flour and make sure there's plenty of flour on both sides .

Now set your machine at setting number one , which is the widest and feed the door right through it .

And now you're going to repeat , fold it in thirds again , place it in the flour , make sure there's plenty on both sides and then feed it through the machine again .

And now we're gonna do this one more time .

So this is our third time , fold it in thirds , place it on top of the flour , making sure both sides are flowered and then feed the dow through the machine one more time .

And our last time .

And by the way , you want to be feeding this part to the machine , the one with all the edges .

So no place to do without folding it on top of the flour .

Make sure again , that he has plenty of flour on both sides .

Set your machine at number two and then roll the dough right through it .

That's set to do on the flour again and make sure there's plenty on both sides .

Always do that in between each time you roll it .

And now we are going to do number three when you work with the door , make sure you always get your son out of the way so that you don't make holes through the door with your fingers .

Here , we are putting flour again on the dough and now we go through number four .

Now , for this last step , we're going to cut the dough in half , lift the handle to the ruin attachment and pass the dough right through it and place the pasta on your prepared jelly oil pan .

You can use the pasta right away or let it air dry for a couple of hours and then put it in a Ziploc bag and freeze it .

I don't recommend refrigerating this pasta because it will get a little sticky .

Have fun making your pasta and a bit .
