As a diabetic I try a lot of keto because it’s very low carb... as an Italian you have no idea how important pasta is to our family gatherings... this is amazing

[@polkadot1963]

I wish I could like this a thousand times! LEARNED SO MUCH! You are so thorough and show step by step! You are a great, great teacher! TY! New subscriber!!!

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

Welcome. Thank you for your kind words.

[@jnrxnofx]

This is the most LEGIT recipe for KETO. Bravo Debbie! Anyone wondering if this recipe works, IT DOES!!!!! Just make sure you dry your pasta and refrigerate it for at least 4 hours like she said. If you don't the pasta will turn to mush.

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

Thank you so much for posting this. I have attempted to follow SO MANY bogus recipes that is is hard to know who to trust. i wanted to post something that folks could enjoy after all the work.

[@drivemebuggy]

Just used your recipe to make fettuccine. Thank you for putting it out there it was a great dinner and still in my carb range!

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

Great to hear!

[@ladywytch129]

Thank you! I am so tired of the fake pastas floating around! I can't wait to try this... it really looks like pasta!

Thank you.

Great walkthrough, love the step by step instructions. Especially emphasis on the rest periods.

[@juleenave2102]

Debbie! This is an amazing video!!! I am so impressed with the way this turned out. It looks absolutely delicious. Can't wait to try. Carb quick should give you some royalties.

That would be good.

Thank you for this video. My order of Carbquick, and KitchenAid Pasta Press just arrived. I can't wait to try this out. My husband and I went Keto, and I've been missing the pasta. I've done a lot of baking with Coconut and Almond flour, but I had never heard of Carbquick. In the past I've loved making pasta, and have been wanting the Pasta Press for years, thanks for giving me an excuse to finally purchase one.

Just browsing through the aisles and happened to pick up a box from Walmart. Made biscuits and they turned out amazing. Pizza and pasta are next! Thanks for the walkthrough!

Thanks for this recipe :) I have spent sooo much money on low carb noodles and they're not even that great. I use carb quick for a flour replacement for waffles and pancakes but i never thought noodles were possible!!! cant wait to make them

[@johncoleman6768]

Hello john here again. I just made this, its delicious! The dough waz fairly easy to make, i did have to add all 1 an half cups of the carquik. Then use more to lay the finished product on. Im not sure if my hand noodle press was the problem, but the noodles came out in 3 strand pieces per noodle. It was from where the plastic holds the middle piece on. The dough was very workable, so im thinking it was the press machine. Take care! An thanks for sharing the recipe

[@margaretmcdaniels2067]

Why is this pasta different from the ravioli pasta recipe you made?

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

The consistency is different to hold the shape.

[@barflybzzzz]

Hi Debbie. This looks amazing! Have a quick question for you. I'm looking to make more of an egg noodle rather than pasta. I realize that fresh egg noodles contain more egg/egg yolks than fresh pasta, but I am a complete noob and worry that simply adding an extra egg or egg yolk would ruin everything. Have you experimented with a keto egg noodle at all? If so, could you please suggest a possible tweak that would make your recipe slightly more "eggy"? Because when I Google it, all I get are recipes for that flour-less egg and cheese concoction which is clearly NOT a noodle. Again, thank you so much for sharing a way for us carb-deprived to enjoy pasta again!

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

I haven't. The closest I can recommend is the ravioli I posted. Just cut it smaller.

[@barflybzzzz]

@@DebbiesBackPorch Thanks for the reply! I also found your dumpling recipe so I may have to try that as well. One last question: I do not own a food processor but do have a Kitchenaid stand mixer ... do you think that would that be OK to use? Again, total noob here. Thanks again!

[@cathycutler7996]

Thank you for the fantastic recipe. I’ve had that big bag of Carbquick for a long time and I’ve hardly used it. I have the Kitchen aide mixer but not that attachment I do have the meat grinder could I possibly use that? Anyhow I can put your attachment on my wish list. May God bless and keyyou and yours. 🔥❤️🙏✝️💗

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

No. The meat grinder won't work. You can get a small hand crank pasta machine pretty cheap, but it will only make flat pasta. Still, they work pretty well.

[@capcrunch7838]

@@DebbiesBackPorch i have a hand crank. Before me and my wife went low carb we would have fresh pasta every friday it was something i would do with the kids. My wife misses it.

[@marthaholtquist6331]

Hi Debbie: Watching you again, I wanted to check out the pasta extruder. Can you tell me where did you get it? Thanks 😊

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

Amazon

[@capcrunch7838]

Debbie do you have any good carbquik biscuit recipes. The one on the pack isnt that great

[@djtigon]

Debbie! Thank you so much. Carbs are definitely my enemy but being a (part) Italian boy, I really can't do without my pasta. I discovered carbquick a while ago but hadn't figured out the wheat gluten trick. The next trick though, I have some friends who are sensitive to gluten (Celiac's). Have you tried anything like psyllium husk, chia seeds, hemp hearts or anything else to substitute the gluten or the additional flour you added?

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

No, I haven't.If you do, let us know how it turns out. CarbQuick, though, is not gluten free, so you would need a different type of flour or substitute

[@djtigon]

@@DebbiesBackPorch oh good to know! I'll have to experiment some when I can find time. Being a professional at a big corporation keeps me really busy but I'm on a quest. But this that you have here, is a GODSEND for my own dinners!!! Thank you so much!

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

You are welcome.

[@djtigon]

@@DebbiesBackPorch Hi Debbie, so I tried making this and using my pasta roller/cutter on my kitchen aide and I couldnt get this dough to stick together enough and go through the roller. I was on my widest setting and it would either bind up as the dough was too thick (and not elastic enough to squish through and pull through to the other side). Any ideas? Really hoping I can get some fettucini out of this.

[@beverlycleaveland2296]

Debbie, when do we add the salt in. I carefully watched the video & didn't see it. Maybe when the flour is added in? Or should it be at the beginning with the Carbquik & Gluten? Thank you!

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

Sift it in with the other dry ingredients.

[@backtoasimplelife]

Debbie, thanks so much for working on this recipe. What brand of VWG do you use? I made the recipe and ran it through the macaroni plate in my pasta machine. It held up nicely when cooked. However the flavor of the VWG overpowered the cheese sauce in my macaroni and cheese. Also, is the pasta supposed to sort of fall apart into bits when one starts chewing on it? Thanks.

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

It is not as firm as flour pasta. This was Anthony's Wheat Gluten.

[@backtoasimplelife]

@@DebbiesBackPorch Thanks for the reply. That is the brand of VWG I used. Was your pasta strongly flavored by the VWG?

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

The strong flavor may be from the CarbQuick itself. That is what I tasted. CarbQuick does not taste exactly like flour. I don't think it is the VWG, because I have used the same VWG in regular bread with no strong flavor present.

[@DJDTHTRP]

I have a question about these noodles. Would these be able to hold up in a one-pot recipe for homemade Hamburger Helper? I have to make my Three Cheese and have it.

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

I don't know for sure. It is more fragile than wheat pasta. If you try it, I would put it in at the end.

[@shadedlady4273]

There are no carbs in cream, so how would using less cream lower the carb count? Unless of course you mean milk but I always substitute cream or at least half-and-half when making a sauce for cheese

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

It isn't correct that there are no carbs in cream. When you look at the package it shows no carbs per a small serving, but cream has 7 grams of carbs per cup and all of it sugar. But you are right that the higher the fat, the lower the carbs.

[@veronicasommer5513]

I would love to make your recipe for pasta. I have the kitchen aid artisan mixer. Would the attachment work with my kitchen aid? I saw a review today and he did not sound hopeful.......

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

Yes it does!In fact, I had an artisan when I bought it,

[@pennyadams9087]

I was wondering if you could substitute xanthan gum for the wheat gluten.

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

I have never tried it so I don't know, but if your issue is gluten, you cannot eat CarbQuick. It is not gluten free.

[@janicelloyd3215]

I’m a type 2 diabetic and carb quick raises my blood sugar by 100 points. Sad.😞

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

That is sad. So sorry to hear it.

[@edithelbourn7385]

Mrs. Debbie can I use xanthan gum in place of flour?

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

I haven't tried it so I don't know. I probably tried 10 different combinations before this one worked but not that.

[@cocacolafiesta]

Debbie would it work putting the pasta in the dehydrator to dry them out before using (instead of refrigerating?

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

I have not tried it so cannot say for sure, but I don't see why not. The CarbQuick has a different texture and does not dehydrate the same as flour, so it may not cook well if dehydrated. I just don't know.

[@cocacolafiesta]

@@DebbiesBackPorch thank you for sharing your knowledge. I’ll try to dehydrate a small amount and I’ll let you know how it works.

[@mandymmr]

I'm confused on the Net carbs...how many Net carbs per serving?

Hi Debbie: This is a keto pasta, and you got the sauce which is made with 1/2 cup of 'FLOUR" ???

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

I do explain in the video that the sauce is not made keto, only the pasta.

[@anthonylipke7754]

I'm looking for a pasta extruder to make macaroni like this. Any recommendations?

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

I use the KitchenAid attachment. I also have a small manual extruder, but I cannot really recommend it for this. Those are the only ones I have ever used.

[@anthonylipke7754]

@@DebbiesBackPorch thanks. I have a tendency to be cheap and it's really hard to know what's going to work here. I was looking for a kit that worked with the grinding attachment but it looks like that's discontinued.

[@DebbiesBackPorch]

Yeah, mine is a stand alone attachment. I don't have a pasta cutter attachment so, being cheap myself, I bought a little manual cutter on Amazon for $21.95 and got the extruder instead of the two piece cutter/roller.
