Additional Notes
I’ve tried other carnivore noodle recipes and they all had their pros and cons. Pure gelatin noodles are fiddly to make and they can only be served cold. There are recipes that use cheese but that just tastes like fathead dough. So I got to work on a recipe that was simple and got as close to the texture and taste of pasta noodles as possible. I’ve been using this recipe for a few months and have been happy with it, consistent results every time. It has quite a neutral flavour, it doesn’t taste like eggs. I like to add Italian herbs to the mix and serve it in bone broth with meatballs.
