Gluten Free Pasta Recipes
Gluten Free Pasta Recipes for the Philips Viva Compact Pasta
If you would like to make gluten-free pasta at home with the Philips Viva Compact Pasta maker, we recommend you to use a gluten free flour such as Buckwheat, Quinoa or Chickpea and in some cases add extra thickener such as Xanthan gum. Xanthan gum is a gluten-free polysaccharide which acts as good binding agent to give pasta extra bounce. Note that flours like coconut, almond and rice contain no binder so they should be combined with other flours to increase the chance of success.
Recipe #1
200 grams garbanzo bean flour (we used Bob’s Red Mill)
70ml egg mixture* (1 egg + water)
*egg mixture = add egg(s) first to the included liquid measuring cup then add water to reach total amount indicated in recipe.
Recipe #2
140 grams buckwheat flour (we used Bob’s Red Mill)
60 grams rice flour (we used Bob’s Red Mill)
2 tsps oil
115 ml water.
Recipe #3
100 grams buckwheat flour (we used Bob’s Red Mill)
100 grams chestnut flour (we used Bob’s Red Mill)
½ tsp carob flour or Xanthan gum
90 ml water
1 tbsp oil

The recipe book included is great because it gives you the exact measurements you need for different types of flour.
I cannot say enough. I wish I could buy one for all my daughters, but they use their stand mixer.
The instructions are clear and precise, which is always welcome. The recipe booklet is perfect for switching up plain old pasta.
I just love all this!
It is compact, so storage is not an issue. It does have some heft to it, so be careful.
I feel it will last a long time. The motor is very quiet and strong.
Good quality parts, they also have heft to them, so not worry of breaking any parts. I’ve dropped the rod on the floor and prayed it didn’t hit my foot, cause that would hurt.
I bought the Black colored machine to match my appliances and it blends perfectly.
Buy this machine!!
In addition to this one, I've researched the
Philips 7000 Series Pasta Maker
and the Philips Artisan Smart Pasta & Noodle Maker (which is only available at one high-end kitchen brand store). I also read all the reviews from all the sites, including the Philips site and Amazon and even watched a few YouTube videos.
In the end, this pasta maker is the right balance for me because I am only cooking for myself and do not want to freeze pasta or make large quantities. However, large quantities can be made with this maker but it has to be done in batches. It is really designed for 2-3 people unless a recipe is doubled, which is possible to do in one churning session. It has a small footprint and comes with three discs for the three types of pastas most people use (spaghetti, fettuccine, and penne).
In the box is the unit, three discs, one recipe book, one instruction book, two measuring cups (one for dry and one for liquids), a cleaning wand, and a cleaning tool that also doubles as a cutter. The liquid cup has two sides and it is important to know which side to use. Side A is for when only all purpose flour is used and Side B is when a mixture of other flours are used. I used a simple recipe of 200 grams of
King Arthur Pasta Flour Blend
and 75ml of liquid on the Side B side of the liquid measuring cup. The liquid was one egg topped off with water until 75ml was reached. I then beat the liquid with a fork until it was mixed.
I just got this today and less than one hour later had a two person spaghetti meal that I ate all by myself. Because I reviewed everyone's videos and read a lot of reviews, I knew that the dough had to be crumbly, although I do think mine was a hairline too crumbly.
After setting up the machine correctly, I then put the flour in the mixing chamber, covered the chamber with the lid, and turned on the pasta maker. As it was churning, I poured the liquid through the two tiny slits in the clear top ever so slowly. It must be done slowly. The texture of the dough must be crumbly and not mixed like one would expect when making bread or pizza dough. Nevertheless, after about 10 minutes I had about 2.5 servings of pasta. I immediately cooked it for 3 minutes in a pot of salted boiling water and then drained it (see photos). It was a simple spaghetti dish dressed with olive oil and grated cheese; however, it tasted much more delicious than store bought pasta to me. I am absolutely ecstatic that I was able to create my own pasta in minutes.
Clean-up was not too bad. I remembered from reading reviews that it is important to let the pasta flour mixture dry on all the implements first before cleaning. I then used my fingers to pull and scrap off the dough. The dough just flaked or peeled off depending on which parts I was cleaning. I then hand washed them in seconds once I had brushed off all the stuck on dough--see photos. The photo of the cutting board with dough on it is how much gunk I flaked off the parts. This does not include the small amount of dough I dumped out of the reservoir. Cleaning took me about 15 minutes.
In summary, I am so happy with my purchase. This pasta extruder machine is a perfect size for small families or those who do not mind making pasta in batches. It also has a small footprint. As long as I use the measuring cups provided and measure the wet and dry ingredients EXACTLY, I know I'll get perfect results. I must remember that the mixed dough must be crumbly for this to work properly. I am still debating whether I will purchase the
Philips Kitchen Appliances Philips Compact Pasta Maker 4-in-1 Accessory Shape Kit
which includes the discs for
Pappardelle, Tagliatelle, Angel Hair and Lasagna. Those discs are currently too expensive and I am unsure how much I'll use them. The three discs that come with this maker are good enough and I suppose I can improvise elbows by cutting the penne smaller because there doesn't seem to be any elbow disc available for this machine. The current price of $116.95 plus tax is reasonable for this. I do wish I purchased this when it was seventeen dollars cheaper but I had not made up my mind at that time.
Pros:
1. Fully Automatic: You don’t have to be a pasta pro to make restaurant-quality dishes with this machine. Just add ingredients, press a button, and let the machine do the work. It’s as easy as it gets.
2. Three Shaping Discs: The included shaping discs (Spaghetti, Penne, and Fettuccine) allow for a variety of pasta options, so you can mix things up based on your mood.
3. Compact Design: It’s small enough to fit on most countertops without taking up too much space. Perfect for people with smaller kitchens or those who don’t want to clutter up their space with a big machine.
4. Recipe Book Included: The included recipe book gives you a range of pasta options to try out, so you can get creative with your dishes.
5. Easy to Clean: After making your pasta, the cleaning process is a breeze. The parts are detachable and dishwasher-safe, so no fuss or mess.
Cons:
1. Limited Shape Options: While the three discs are great for classic pasta shapes, more adventurous home chefs might find the lack of additional discs limiting.
2. Requires Ingredients in the Right Proportions: While the machine is automatic, it works best when you use the right proportions of ingredients. If you’re unfamiliar with pasta-making, you might need to experiment a bit to get the perfect texture.
3. May not be Best for Those with Special Dietary Needs: While this machine works wonders with traditional ingredients, if you need gluten-free, low-carb, or other specialty pastas, you may need to look for a machine that can handle these ingredients more effectively.
In short, the Philips Compact Pasta and Noodle Maker is perfect for anyone who loves fresh pasta but wants to avoid the hassle of making it by hand. With its easy operation, simple clean-up, and versatile shaping discs, you’ll be whipping up delicious dishes in no time. Just be ready to experiment with ingredients to find your perfect pasta!
Regardless, my first batch came out just fine, although I think maybe a bit more liquid was in order. YOU MUST WEIGH TO THE GRAM AND FOLLOW THEIR RECIPES WHEN YOU FIRST START!!!! I cannot emphasize this enough: if you are off even a little, it may not work at all for you. Turn the dial and hit play. Just dump in the flour and slowly pour in the egg mixture. It automatically mixes. It then beeps just before it extrudes, which is only a few minutes (3ish). Be prepared to stand there to cut the pasta until the entire batch is extruded. Since it is so fast, boil your water before putting the flour in the machine. The pasta was cooked in 3 minutes. I was happily surprised at how much I liked the pasta, especially since the trash gluten-free options that are so expensive tend to be pretty bad. The clean-up is a breeze- top shelf of your dishwasher. It couldn't be easier! I can make fresh pasta and cook it faster than a box of dried pasta. Love it!! This works well for 2 people. If you have a family, get the bigger model. I love the small footprint, and it is light, so easy to store and pull out. The little drawer on it holds the other 2 discs, and it has 3 discs included. I will pick up the extra disc, as I see myself using this a ton!
I never believed the videos of making noodles. And it looked like a whole of extra junk to clean up. But this one is from Philips. And if I don't like it I can return it, most likely leaving it out at my door.
I didn't think about economics before. The worse you can get is saving 23 cents per 200 g of noodles without the egg, for 2 to 3 people. This compares organic flour with organic spaghetti from Whole Foods, doesn't count electricity, water, and labor So it takes 1.9 years to break even if you make 200 g every day.
If you add the organic egg, you are losing 19 cents per 200 g of noodles. But spaghetti doesn't have eggs.
The disassembly and reassembly were easy. Except that the triangle marker on the spaghetti disc was so faint that I thought the manual was talking about something else.
The process is so much easier than the bread machine. There is no confusion. Pour 200 g of flour into the chamber out of the way. Close the lid and then turn on the machine. And then pour an 80 ml total of egg plus water into the chamber slowly over the lid. There are only 80 ml of liquid so it can't take much time. There are only 200 g of flour so the whole process doesn't take much time either.
I can't believe that the machine did it right the first time. There are no sensors. A simple motor is controlled by a program. But the machine makes spaghetti like a robot. A spaghetti isn't uniform across the length but the imperfection disappeared after cooking.
If not cooking immediately, I would cover the spaghetti so it won't get dry easily. It will start stiffening up and may break when you move them.
I boiled the basic spaghetti recipe for 8 minutes. It tastes like, well, spaghetti.
You can put everything except the motor into the dishwasher. All the plastic is of good quality. They can be rinsed clean. There is a brush with a hard scrubber and a silicone soft scrubber to take out the few flours that are left behind. The flat cleaning tool is actually the metal pin in the middle, each end of which is used to clear holes on the discs.
It's not Korean ramen, not authentic udon, but I've been there before settling on spaghetti now. I'm very happy with it. Perhaps I'll think of something that justifies me against ordering spaghetti on our weekly grocery order.
Until now.
I ended up buying this because making Italian food is one of my favorite dishes to make...I miss the flour everywhere...I miss the warm pasta feel as you make it etc. But with gluten free pasta I was hovering dangerously close between cardboard and pasta so heavy that it would make some unladen Jewish bread seem like a chewy treat.
****THE REVIEW***
When I unboxed this thing I had my doubts. How in the hell was this thing going to make any kind of decent pasta. But my wife was excited again for pasta and so we just went for it. Pictured above is actually our first batch. You can literally still see the box and instructions on the right. Our first batch came out literally perfect. We used King Authors 1:1 gluten free flour. We ate a couple of noodles straight off that rack and they were amazing. Even better with some homemade sauce we had made just prior.
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY AS IT IS WRITTEN IN THE PASTA MAKING KIT
and for people like me that ignore that sentence because we know better let me say it again
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY AS IT IS WRITTEN IN THE PASTA MAKING KIT
I seriously can't express this enough. Our second batch I decided I knew better. I changed the ratio based off another recipe I had been making hand made pasta with...put that recipe into the maker and it was total garbage...the first noodles to come out were almost as good as the first ones...then the ratio was off and not enough liquid for the rest of the flour and it ended up blocking up the mixer. I ended up throwing out the batch. I tried again using more eggs then what my recipe called for and the noodles weren't garbage ready but they were not the caliber I am used to serving in my house to guests...and then I went back to the recipe as it is on the website using the flour weight instead of cup measurements...and voila! Back to perfect noodles.
again...shouting warning
WEIGH YOUR FLOUR. DO NOT PACK IT INTO A MEASURING CUP...seriously. I did this wrong twice and forgot another time...your end result will almost always tell you how you messed up...now if Philips could make a fridge warning me I am putting the cereal into it instead of the milk I would appreciate it.
Clean up is not so much fun...but seriously when is it ever...there is flour, egg, and mess everywhere and in every nook and cranny...while it is fairly easy to take apart and put back together...if you miss anything...the next time you take it out though it will be as if you left concrete inside of your machine.
We have owned it about a month now and we have made 11 batches of pasta and only 3 were horrible...and all of those were my mistake. If you want gluten free pasta (I am sure regular pasta too but there is so much good pasta out there why make your own) that tastes amazing...with the ability to make almost ANY kind of pasta (lemon pepper pasta and tomato basil are our favorites so far) I seriously cannot recommend this enough.
