Simple Chunky Flax Pasta

There are some days that call for pasta and you don't want to eat the highly processed gluten-free pastas you can buy in supermarkets and health food stores. So here is a very quick recipe for healthy gluten-free 100% HiFi whole-grain pasta that takes you all the way from grains and seeds to ready cooked pasta in about 30 min.

I don't buy flour anymore, because only by grinding the grain myself I can be sure that the flour is 100% HiFi. Grinding takes about 2min for the flour used in this recipe, even if you only have a tiny seed/coffee grinder like me.

(Takes about 30min)

You need:
- 1 cup of brown rice
- 1 cup of buckwheat
- 1/2 cup of flax seeds
- water
(- salt, if you need it)

You do:
Grind rice, buckwheat, and flax seeds into flour. Mix the flours well. Add water and beat the dough until it's firm, but not breaking. Roll the dough out as thin as you like (and as much as you can manage) and cut into strips. Cook for 5 to 10min (depending on the size of your pasta). Make some great pasta sauce and enjoy it.
