Eggless Pasta With Two Sauces Food

CREAMY CARBONARA (NO EGG)

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to boil, add a generous amount of salt to the pot and the pasta. Cook according to packet instructions. Reserve 1/4 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat oil and butter in a frying pan on medium heat. Add onion, bacon and mushrooms to the pan and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until the bacon is crisp and mushrooms are tender.
• Reduce heat to low, then add cream, 1/4 cup of reserved pasta water and the cooked penne pasta and cook, stirring regularly, until the liquid has reduced into a thick creamy sauce. Remove the frying pan from heat and add a good handful of shredded parmesan cheese, tossing through the pasta.
• Serve immediately with extra parmesan cheese on top and garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.

EGGLESS PASTA

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add warm water and stir to make a stiff dough. Increase water if dough seems too dry.
• Pat the dough into a ball and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 10 to 15 minutes. Cover. Let dough rest for 20 minutes.
• Roll out dough using rolling pin or pasta machine. Work with a 1/4 of the dough at one time. Keep the rest covered, to prevent from drying out. Roll by hand to 1/16 of an inch thick. By machine, stop at the third to last setting.
• Cut pasta into desired shapes.
• Cook fresh noodles in boiling salted water for 3 to 5 minutes. Drain.

HOMEMADE PASTA DOUGH

Steps:

• On a clean work surface or in a large bowl, combine both flours and 1 teaspoon salt. Make a well in center; add 1 cup warm water and oil. Using a fork and whisking outward from the center of well, gradually incorporate flour mixture into liquid until a ragged dough forms.
• Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead until dough is smooth and springs back when pressed with a finger, 8 to 10 minutes. While kneading, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if dough feels too dry; or add more "00" flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if dough feels too sticky.
• Pat dough into an approximately 1-inch-thick square; tightly wrap in plastic and let stand at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours before using.

VEGAN CACIO E PEPE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high. (Go easy on the salt here, since the miso paste added in Step 4 is high in salt.) Add the nutritional yeast, cashew butter and miso to a small bowl and stir into a thick paste. Crush the peppercorns using the flat side of a knife. (Alternatively, you can roughly chop them, or use a pepper grinder set to a coarse setting.)
• Add the pasta to the boiling water, reduce the temperature to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes before al dente according to package instructions. Reserve 2 1/2 cups pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta.
• Add 1/4 cup olive oil to the empty pot and heat over medium. Add about two-thirds of the crushed black peppercorns and toast, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the miso mixture, and stir, then whisk in 1 3/4 cups reserved pasta water until sauce is smooth. Add the pasta to the sauce and cook over medium-high, tossing it constantly and vigorously with tongs, until the sauce is glossy and the pasta is fully al dente, 1 to 2 minutes. Add an extra splash of reserved pasta water to keep the sauce glossy, if needed.
• Divide among bowls. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with remaining crushed pepper and serve immediately.

BASIC PASTA DOUGH (NO EGG)

Steps:

• Put flour in large mixing bowl, making a well in the center.
• Add wet ingredients to well and very slowly mix together with a fork, incorporating only a little flour at a time so it mixes smoothly and evenly. Trust me, the more patient you are with this the better it will turn out.
• Continue kneading by hand for about 10 minutes, let rest for a half hour covered with a towel. Repeat a couple times until dough is smooth and silky, and just slightly sticky.
• Shape by hand or with a machine.
• Note: Boiling fresh pasta takes significantly less time than dry pasta. Depending on the shape, cook for 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
