PASTA & NOODLES
The BioChef juicer can extrude
pasta simply by replacing the juicing
screen with the mincing screen.
The pasta dough bypasses the juice
outlet and is pushed out through
the drum cap and one of the pasta
nozzles supplied.
Freshly made pasta is such a treat,
so much so that you may nd it
dicult to eat packet pasta ever
again. You also know exactly what is
going into the mix. There are many
varieties of ingredients you can try,
mixing in beetroot, carrot or other
types of vegetable juice to give a
vibrant colour.
Tips for pasta making
• Add an egg and a few drops of
olive oil to your mixture to help
prevent it from sticking together.
• Have a oured tray to lay it on
when it comes out of the machine.
• If making spelt or semolina pasta,
reduce the amount of our used or
the dough will be too sti.
Pasta
Firstly set up your juicer with the
mincing screen and desired nozzle
for fettuccine or round noodle. On
a clean kitchen bench or in a large
bowl, pour out a couple of cups of
organic our.
Add half a cup of warm water or
vegetable juice and ½ teaspoon of
sea salt (which acts as a rising agent).
Keep the mixture dry, not too sticky.
Break into balls and feed into the
chute. As the strands of pasta come
out of the machine, cut them o and
lay on the oured tray. Repeat the
process until dough is used. Cook
noodles in boiling water for 3–5
minutes and drain.
Boiled Rice
Noodle
An ideal way to use left over rice is to
make rice noodles. Mix rice in a bowl
together with a little sea salt and
warm water.
Feed the mixture into the machine
and cut at desired length. Cook
in boiling water for 3-5 minutes.
Add desired vegetables and Asian
sauces.
