Gluten-Free Quinoa Noodles

Gluten-Free Quinoa Noodles

I made this one up myself when I was really wanting chicken and noodles. It’s based on the Betty Crocker® recipe.
I use quinoa flour because of the increased nutritional content. Plus, as any GF person knows, we get real tired of the same old stuff constantly, and quinoa has a great flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup quinoa flour
  • 1 cup rice flour
  • 2 teaspoons xanthan gum
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil (Optional)
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (Optional)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano (Optional)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/3 cup rice flour, divided

Directions

Step 1
Mix quinoa flour, 1 cup rice flour, xanthan gum, basil, rosemary, oregano, and salt together in a large bowl; make a well in the center.

Step 2
Whisk eggs and egg yolk together in a small bowl. Mix in water and olive oil. Pour into the well in the flour mixture; mix thoroughly until a dough forms.

Step 3
Lightly dust a work surface with 2 1/2 tablespoons rice flour. Knead dough until smooth and elastic, 8 to 12 minutes. Cover dough and let rest, about 10 minutes.

Step 4
Divide dough into 4 equal pieces. Dust work surface with remaining 2 1/2 tablespoons rice flour. Roll each piece of dough into a square shape that is about 1/16-inch thick. Let dough rest, uncovered, for 20 minutes.

Step 5
Roll each square of dough up loosely; slice into 1/4-inch pieces. Unroll noodles.

Step 6
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook noodles until tender yet firm to the bite, about 2 minutes.

Cook’s Notes:

Since weather plays havoc with gluten-free doughs, the liquid may have to be slightly adjusted. You may need an additional 1 tablespoon water and 1/2 teaspoon olive oil.
