Chinese Egg Noodles (Spaghetti) - 30% Wholewheat, Quinoa Flour, Milk & Salt (Round 85)

 

Yields approx. 450g of noodles

Ingredients:

1. 200g wheat flour (Valsemøllen danske hvedemel)
2. 120g Organic wholewheat Flour (Øko fuldskornhvedemel)
3. 80g quinoa powder (20% of total flour weight)
4. 2 eggs (120ml) + 
5. 90ml fresh skimmed milk 0.1% fat to 210ml (45% of flour weight)
6. 2 tsp salt (8g) (2% of flour weight)
7. 1 tsp olive oil (4ml) (1% of flour weight)

7. 1 litre of boiling water for cooking each 100g of noodles

Instructions:

1. If your quinoa flour tastes bitter, process your whole quinoa flour by baking it in the oven for a couple of hours at 250 deg F/120 deg C until golden brown (you can keep the processed quinoa flour fresh in the fridge for many months). Or to make small batch, toast it on the stove under medium to medium low heat, stiring constantly.

2. In the Philips pasta maker, mix 3 cycles of 9 mins (1 cycle 3 mins) without extruding. Dough should look small lumpy and compact like rice grains. Not too hard, not too small.

3. Rest for 20 mins.

4. Mix 1 cycle and extrude straight with ramen disc (The spaghetti disc from Phillips can be used for ramen).

5. Bring to boil a pot of water. 

6. Cook for 1.5 - 2 min, drain and serve as dry noodles or in soup. Start to test for doneness at 1.5 min.

Additional Information:

Made this on 30 December 2024. The noodles tasted springy, chewy and just prefect when cooked between 1.5 to 2 minutes :-) This is probably the world's most nutritious noodles :-)

This is Round 85.

References:



This is the organic wheat flour I use from Føtex Supermarket 

This is the fresh skimmed milk 0.1% fat (skummet mælk) from the Danish supermarkets.

Add 80g of quinoa flour (Please ignore the reading as I am making half a batch here)

Add 120g of wholewheat flour.

Add 200g of wheat flour.

Add 8g salt

Add 80g of roasted quinoa flour.

Mix all the dry ingredients (wheat flour, wholewheat flour and salt) together and add them into the pasta maker's chamber.


Crack and mix 2 eggs (approx.120ml)

Add 90ml fresh skimmed milk.

Add 1 teaspoon (4ml) of olive oil and mix well.

Start the mixing and slowly pour in the egg mixture (egg, milk and olive oil) and run the machine for 3 cycles of 3 minutes each (you will need to unplug and plug in the machine after each mixing cycle to prevent it from moving to the extrusion stage)

Before extrusion after the last round of mixing (4th round) the dough looked like this, like lumps of rice grains

Close-up

After resting for 20 minutes, run another mixing cycle (4th mixing) and extrude straight away using the ramen or spaghetti disc.

Here they come :-)


If you are not consuming them immediately, store them in a plastic container in fridge for 3 days or in freezer for 6 months.

Bring to bowl a pot of water (1 litre for every 100g of noodles), add in noodles and let them cook for 1.5 - 2 minutes.

Tossed it with some soy sauce and sesame oil and add more toppings such as vegetables and meat as desired.
