Hello everyone,<\/p>\n
Over the holidays, my partner and I did a lot of binge watching. You can relate, right? One of our new favorite videos is Pasta\u00a0Grannies on YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n The premise is simple. A British woman goes around recording Italian grannies making pasta. So simple, yet so entirely addictive to watch!<\/p>\n I don’t have any memories of my grandparents making pasta from scratch from my childhood, but my mom does. She told me all about how her childhood Sundays were a full day of rolling out gnocchi and simmering sauce. I suppose watching Pasta Grannies is comforting and helps me feel more connected to my Italian side. Plus, I was happily surprised that many of the pasta recipes they used were vegan.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The recipes called for the simplest of ingredients, like water, salt, and some type of flour – the most common being semolina which is made from durum wheat. This makes it ideal for pasta as it will produce a sturdier pasta than general all-purpose flour.<\/p>\n Aside from the videos, the pasta stars aligned, as for the holidays I had also finally caved in and asked for the\u00a0Kitchen Aid Mixer<\/a>\u00a0set of three pasta attachments<\/a>.\u00a0Carb-filled evenings, here I come!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/a><\/a><\/p>\n I scoured the internet, reviewed a plethora of Pasta Grannies videos, and I came up with a simple, yet tasty vegan pasta recipe. Was it completely perfect out of the gate? No. But it makes a mean pasta with minimal effort. Besides requiring just a handful of basic ingredients, it takes just under 30 minutes to prepare.<\/p>\n What are you waiting for? Give it a shot!<\/p>\n Cheers & happy cooking!<\/p>\n Jocelyn<\/p>\n * Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links. As always, all opinions are\u00a0my own!<\/em><\/p>\n
