Can you make pasta with wheat flour?

Question

I'm wanting to cut white flour out of my diet.

Answer 1

Whole Wheat Pasta

1 1/2 cups whole-wheat flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup white flour

1 pound (there about)

In a large glass bowl and with a wooden spoon mix together the flours and salt.
Make a well.
Whisk together the eggs and water, and pour into the well and begin to mix well until a ball is formed.
Turn out onto a floured board and knead for 20 turns.
Wrap in waxed paper and let rest for 30 minutes.
Cut to manageable shape and follow directions for a manual pasta machine or roll out to desired thickness and cut to desired shape.

"Fresh, healthy and very delish... I sometimes make this the traditional style, and when in a hurry, I throw all the ingredients into my mixer, with the kneading hook."
Original recipe yield: 4 servings.
Prep Time:40 MinutesReady In:40 Minutes
INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
4 eggs
2 teaspoons olive oil

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DIRECTIONS:
Stir together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour and salt in a medium bowl, or on a clean board. Make a hollow in the center, and pour in the olive oil. Break eggs into it one at a time, while mixing quickly with a fork until the dough is wet enough to come together. Knead on a lightly floured surface until the dough is stiff and elastic. Cover, and let stand for 30 minutes to relax.
Roll out dough by hand with a rolling pin, or use a pasta machine to achieve the desired thickness of noodles. Cut into desired width and shapes. Allow the pasta to air dry for at least 15 minutes to avoid having it clump together.


To cook fresh pasta:

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pasta, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Fresh pasta cooks very quickly. It will float to the surface when fully cooked. Drain, and use as desired.

You can also add spinach, grated eggplant and squid ink for color and a little extra flavor.

Answer 4

Most pasta is made from wheat flour. It's just that most is bleached first. Whole wheat, that has not been bleached is also available.

Answer 5

Yes. You can even buy wheat pasta from the supermarket.

Answer 6

Of course you can. There is a certain formula though. I think you have to add more water or something but I am not sure.
You can actually buy it already made at the grocery store. Just look for it there.
