My wife gave me a cookbook for Christmas called The Gluten Free Gourmet Cooks Fast and Healthy by Bette Hagman. It has a pasta base mix recipe in it and from what I have read, these recipes are pretty good.
2 cups tapioca flour
2 cups cornstarch
3/4 cup potato starch flour
1 Tablespoon salt
5 Tablespoons Xanthan gum
Blend all that well and store in a covered container in a dry place. Makes 5 batches of pasta 2-3 servings each
To make the pasta,
1 cup pasta base mix from above
1/2 cup liquid egg substitute
or 1 egg + 1 egg white +1 tblsp vegetable oil.
Stir together until it forms a ball and then knead gently on cornstarch covered board until firm and not at all sticky.
Roll and cut using cornstarch for dusting
Cook in boiling salted water with few drops of cooking oil for 10-12 minutes or pasta tests done
