You probably know this, but just in case, a "tablespoon" or "tsb" is an actual consistent volume measurement like a liter not just a literal table spoon (although I'm sure that was the basis from centuries ago).
Congratulations for this simple recipe! You must be the 1st on TH-cam giving a gluten free recipe without special additives or readymade "brand secret" flour mixtures! Have u ever tried a noodle maker hand-operated machine to turn this dough into a thinner sheet? I bet it should work very easily! Some years ago I used to make noodles, lasagne sheets or spinach ravioli only with buckwheat flour or yellow lentil flour plus eggs...they were so perfect with a fish (tuna or salmon) sauce. Well I'm thinking seriously to restart fresh pasta making and experiment with your proposed ratios without eggs this time. I also often use my kitchen machine to grind oat/buckwheat flakes for gluten free flours, or to make a mince from water-soaked chickpeas or various beans.
Thank you George. That's a great idea, I think, with a manual pasta machine, the dough would get really nice and flat. Yellow lentil flour noodles sound great as well.
Just saw the lentil flour recipe and thought oh man I can make pasta with that! And now just came across your video for lentil pasta! You guys are awesome! 💚
Thank you, Samuel! I was considering buying lentil flour but it's very pricey, plus I prefer to make my own recipe ingredients whenever possible to avoid commercial processes and chemicals. With your recipe, I don't even need a pasta maker. I have some organic red lentils in the pantry and I can hardly wait to make this pasta!💝
Thank you for the receipt. I've just made it, cut it and stored it in the fridge for tomorrow's lunch. It was easy, actually the worst part was to sift the lentil after blending. I did use a flax egg, even I wanted to use egg but noone responded how many eggs, and the dough has bad smell, I m sure it's of the flex egg..I hope it will evaporate otherwise it could end up as a bad smelling lunch. And, I've used only lentil flour. 1 cup. I've made just a half of the receipt. When I was rolling it I've used whole grain wheat flour. I haven't used other half of the dought, I've just wrapped it and placed in the fridge. Edit O-M-G this is awsome. It cooked just great and it is pastaaa!! My life has been changed😁
I keep making this pasta over and over again, with some slightly twists in the recipe bu t it is awsome every time. I've use it as a lasagna sheet as well and it turns out just great. Try it!
It was actually 45 minutes... if you look at the clock behind you. I like the recipe, thanks for the inspiration! I have been missing pasta as I don't eat gluten and try to avoid processed food
what! i just found the channel i've been looking for my whole life. So glad to find you finally. These are my type of recipes for sure, will love to look around and get new ideas.
@@Yes2LifeShow well so far most everything is so wonderful... i guess the only thing i could think of right off hand is wild mushrooms since I have so many dried wild mushrooms... powder form, and sliced dehydrated it would be interesting to see ideas. OH maybe some tempeh recipes/ideas and carob recipes.
@@opheliabells Thanks for sharing! Great ideas - we actually were talking about doing more mushroom dishes in the future, same for tempeh! We'll try to put something up in the next months :)
Yes 2 Life Show almost it is hard to find lots of things here in Iraq ... can you please share more high protein meals with Available stuff .. and can I ask you if you can share a high protein 90 gram meal plan for 2200 cal as vegetarian 🌱 appreciate your help regarding this ... and ❤️so lucky to find your channel 🥰
One question: Can I use the freshly cooked pasta in a baked dish (I'm thinking of making a lasagna with it), or do I need to dry the noodles first? Thank you.
Thanks for the recipe. Many people say you should wash and rinse the lentils before using them. What’s your thoughts on that? Is it not necessary? Thank you!
Hi Sarah! Yes, you could probably use garbanzo flour as well! Just make sure to get the right consistency of the dough, meaning it shouldn’t be too runny or too firm. Let us know how it worked :)
Do you then cook this fresh? Legume pastas are everywhere but it’s hard to find recipes/videos of makin it fresh! How does it compare cooked fresh vs dry from the box?
Very sorry for the late reply. Yes, you cook it fresh. It's a bit more thick/doughey than dry legume pasta and cooks faster. It's a nice change from the legumes pasta in the store
@@Yes2LifeShow That was amazing and so easy! Wow! I am so blessed to have found your Channel! I am loving all your recipes! Thanks again for showing us how to make healthy pasta without any preservatives! I can't wait to make it this week! Keep up the great work! You guys are the best! Peace & Love! ✌❤
do you think 50g of tvp flour (textured vegetable protein/ soy protein in powdered form) and 50g vital wheat gluten will work? i am asking this because just 100g of this spaghetti/ noodles will have 63g of protein.
Thanks for watching. I haven't tried it, but I think if you only use those ingredients, you will get more of a steak like texture. Let me know what happened. You could add in a bit of vital wheat gluten into this lentil pasta recipe, in order to increase the protein content and to make the dough stronger.
@@Yes2LifeShow and the reason for getting steak like texture is because of vital gluten right, what if i reduce gluten from 50g to 25g and increasing tvp to 75g to make 100g(75g tvp, 25g gluten)
Make flax-gel instead, crush the flax seeds (don't turn them to flour it will not work, just crush the shells), bring your water to boil. Add the crushed flaxseeds to already boiling water. Stir for 3 minutes. Let it cool a bit, you'll see the water turns to gel. When it is cool enough to stick your finger into stain out the seeds. I use pantyhose. Use the gel in the pasta and eat the leftover seeds in your muesli tomorrow.
I'm about to try this recipe But... I'm confused as to the time difference between where I am and where he is... his 10 minutes was actually 1hr and 40min... how do i convert this into my time...
I tried them out today but unfortunately they did not turn out great. The taste was alright but the texture was not good. It was quite hard/stiff. And I could not roll it out very thin as the dough was breaking then. I sticked to the measurements so not sure what went wrong. Too bad.
Thank you! :) you probably can use rice flour or chickpea flour instead of the buckwheat flour. Or if you have no problem with gluten, you could even use wheat or spelt. Hope that helps :)
@Safiya Hesham Oat flour would be my favorite option too, but unfortunately it is not sticky enough. You can make your own buckwheat flour in a high-speed blender though, by blending buckwheat. You could also try the recipe by replacing the buckwheat with equal parts rice flour.
@@Yes2LifeShow How about quinoa flour? I grind my own with a coffee grinder to save money ;) My grandkids LOVE homemade crisps with hummus (& I add some black beans, roasted garlic & ginger: From the 18 month old to the 4yr old, they NEVER get sick!). THANK YOU SO MUCH for ALL THESE GREAT RECIPES & AWESOME DIRECTIONS! I'm kinda new to the vegan train & you explain things VERY WELL!
wdym? the point of rinsing is to get rid of the lentil dust. but this recipe you are essentially making pure lentil dust rinsing, drying, then blending... that would be like evaporating salt water so you could have the salt grains to salt your pasta water, therefore creating more salt water from the salt water you just unmade 🫠
I know that the one at the store has 100% lentils, but i haven't found a way yet to only use lentil flour in this recipe because it will not be sticky enough.
Thanks for watching. I think at least for a week or 2, but it might behave differently once it sat in the fridge, since the dough is very different from normal dough - much more tense
@@farrellvanessa I haven't tried it yet with brown rice flour. I think the consistency might be different because the white one is more sticky and starchy. I only used oat flour instead of buckwheat for pancakes and it made them hard to stick together. Worth a try though :) Let me know

I made pasta just with red lentil floor +oil+water. You don't need to mix other floors 😊
That's awesome to hear :) thank you. I didn't try it with oil. Will definitely give it a try

Can these noodles be dried the same as traditional noodles , for long term storage?

Can chia seeds be used to replace flax seeds? Kind of hard to find it where i live.
Do you think this would work if I replaced the oil with aquafaba?
Great post !

Thanks for watching. Rice flour actually :)
@@Yes2LifeShow thank you
Why not use lentil flour on the cutting board?
I don't have the other flours, I tried only a few days ago with lentil flour and I got too sticky (the dough sticks to the work surface).
That's true, unfortunately just lentil flour on its own doesn't work as easily
So maybe some other kind of flour (soy / hummus / oatmeal)
Should not the lentils be well rinsed (then dried?) first??
wdym? the point of rinsing is to get rid of the lentil dust.
but this recipe you are essentially making pure lentil dust
rinsing, drying, then blending...
that would be like evaporating salt water so you could have the salt grains to salt your pasta water, therefore creating more salt water from the salt water you just unmade 🫠
How to make it with only lentil flour?
I know that the one at the store has 100% lentils, but i haven't found a way yet to only use lentil flour in this recipe because it will not be sticky enough.
I found a way. Make the dough with lentil floor. Then put rice floor on the wood before rolling. It works perfectly
why u add other carb flour
Hi, how long can we refrigerate the pasta dough?
Thanks for watching. I think at least for a week or 2, but it might behave differently once it sat in the fridge, since the dough is very different from normal dough - much more tense
What is rice flour?
You can find it at most Asian or organic supermarkets. Or if you have a Highspeed blender, just blend regular rice until you get a flour and sieve it
@@Yes2LifeShow I'm assuming you can use brown or white rice to make flour? Love the lentils. Have you tried swapping buckwheat flour oat flour?
@@farrellvanessa I haven't tried it yet with brown rice flour. I think the consistency might be different because the white one is more sticky and starchy.

I think lentil tofu would work well but lentil milk doesn't sound like the tastiest option 😅
Why didn't you show the finished product?
Thank you, but it would have been much better to show us the cooked pasta.
Great point :) We do this now with our newer videos but unfortunately we cannot adjust the ones that are already uploaded.
Ya if you dont have a power blender, everyone can go spend 400$+ to buy one to make pasta.
That one was just $100. You could also use an electric spice grinder (less than $30) and work in smaller batches.
Or you could buy a package of lentil flour for $2 or $3
Can I skip the oil
Sure thing :)
Looks too thick. I'd add a few more Tablespoons of water, so that dough can be rolled out thinner.
Not really lentil pasta
I just know that you have to be German 👀
Correct 😁🙏
Obviously I buy my high performance blender in an organic super market....... *facepalm*
Needs to be an organic blender after all.
You are not using a Ninja. Also, put a link to those copper bowls and spoons. Ain't nobody care about your damn camera gear.
