Orgran Hints and Tips
Orgran Pasta
Gluten free pasta is not too different from cooking wheat pasta. It is important to follow the instructions on the pack and use the recommended cooking time.
Three Easy Steps
Step 1: For every 250g packet of Orgran Pasta you will need 5 litres of boiling water. Bring the water to a rolling boil and then add the pasta. Although the pasta does not need salt or oil, it may be added to the water to taste.
Step 2: Stir gently and continue to boil for the time indicated on the pack and then taste and check the pasta has reached your preferred consistency. Each Orgran variety has a recommended cooking time stated on the pack but this can vary slightly depending on the temperature of the water.
Step 3: Strain the pasta through a colander and rinse gently under warm running water. Serve immediately with your favourite sauce.
Orgran Lasagne
Orgran Lasange sheets are instant, provided they are layered with adequate sauce and moisture and baked in a foil covered tray. Note: Excess liquid sauce can cause overcooking.
Orgran Bread Mix
Orgran Easy Bake Bread Mix can be easy to bake and provide great results baked in a conventional oven. Please us the directions below;
To 450g ORGRAN Gluten Free Bread Mix, add 425 mL (14.3 US fl.oz) of hot water (70oC or 160oF), and 30 mL of vegetable oil.
1/ Preheat conventional oven to 180oC (350oF). Preheat fan forced oven to 165oC (325oF)
2/ Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix, ensure the sides are scraped and all flour has been mixed thoroughly. An electric mixer with dough hooks may be used.

Orgran All Purpose Pastry Mix
Puff Pastry Hints & Tips
Make sure you follow the directions on the packet. Don’t try to take short cuts when making this pastry. You must follow the instructions carefully
Do not use margarine. To achieve the flaky layers associated with puff pastry you will need to use a hard fat such as butter (diet permitting) or vegetable shortening
When using butter make sure you have had it out the fridge for about 30 minutes so that it is not too hard when rolling it into the dough. However, it must still be firm and slightly cold – but not hard
Make sure your utensils and equipment are cold.
Make sure you leave the pastry in the freezer for the prescribed time between each rolling
If the edges of the pastry become too hard after being in the freezer, using your rolling pin gently ‘work’ the pastry until it softens
While working the pastry the butter may become ‘sloppy’ and the pastry will be difficult to work with. If this happens, put the pastry back in the freezer for 5-10 minutes so the butter can firm up slightly
While rolling the pastry avoid dusting the working surface with flour, as this may not give the best results. When rolling out the pastry you can use flour to remove the stickiness BUT you must ensure that you remove all traces before continuing as the pastry will absorb the flour and may make it tough
When working the pastry, be gentle – do not over work
If the dough becomes sticky chill in the fridge to let it harden again
Do not roll the pastry out too thinly when folding as the dough may be over extended
Manual pasta machines with rollers can be used to roll out pastry sheets to the desired thickness
Short Crust Pastry Hints & Tips
Ensure butter (diet permitting) is not too firm – you want to be able to squeeze it with your fingers. However, you don’t want it too soft – it should not turn into ‘mush’.
Additional water may need to be added to achieve the desired consistency
The rolled pastry sheets will be quite delicate, and will need to be handled carefully when placing into a pie dish. Alternatively, the pastry dough can be pressed into the pie or baking dish or you can follow the below recipe which includes egg (diet permitting)
It is usually best to ‘blind bake’ pastry shells prior to adding filling, to help stop the pastry absorbing too much moisture and going soggy. Place into a pre-heated oven at 210°C for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown
Pastry Mix FAQ
Can I make a Vegan version?
For puff pastry in particular, hard solid fats such as vegetable shortening are required to achieve the ‘flaky’ texture of puff pastry and can be used in place of butter. Soft margarine type products will not work.
Can I use margarine to make puff pastry?
No. Using margarine will not result in the traditional flaky layers associated with puff pastry. You need to ensure a hard fat such as butter or Vegetable Shortening is used as directed.
Can I store the prepared pastry sheets in the freezer?
Sheets of pastry can be prepared and stored in the freezer. If you are storing sheets in the freezer, they must be thoroughly wrapped to prevent them drying out. When the sheets are required for baking they can be removed from the freezer and made up as required.
