Deshydrated algerian rechta 500g

Savoir-Faire and Premium Ingredients

The secret to perfect rechta lies in the extreme thinness of its strands and the purity of its ingredients. Our product is crafted following the strict ancestral method:

• Premium Durum Wheat Semolina: Carefully selected to ensure excellent texture and structure during cooking.

• Artisanal Kneading & Cutting: The dough is thoroughly kneaded, rolled out thinly, and precisely cut into delicate, uniform ribbon strands.

• 100% Natural: Free from any additives, artificial colors, or preservatives, staying true to what grandmothers used to make from scratch.

Thanks to this meticulous process, our rechta strands stay incredibly light, airy, and never stick together when properly steamed.

How to Cook the Perfect Authentic Rechta with Chicken (Sauce Blanche)

Our artisanal rechta is designed to beautifully absorb the delicate flavors of the traditional cinnamon-infused white sauce. To create a flawless dish, follow these traditional steps:

1. Prep the Noodles: Drizzle a tablespoon of neutral oil over the dry rechta and gently rub the strands with your fingertips to coat them.

2. First Steaming: Place the noodles in the upper basket of a traditional steamer (couscoussier). Let it steam for about 15 minutes once the steam starts passing through.

3. Hydration: Empty the noodles into a large wide bowl. Fluff them gently with a fork while sprinkling a little salted water (or a ladle of your ongoing chicken broth for extra flavor). Let it rest for 5 minutes, then steam a second time for another 10 to 15 minutes.

4. The Final Touch: Once perfectly tender, gently fold in a knob of butter or traditional s'men (clarified butter).

5. Plating: Serve the rechta hot, generously drenched in its savory white chicken broth, garnished with tender turnips, chickpeas, and a beautiful dust of ground cinnamon.
