Simple Truth Organic 100% Whole Wheat Spaghetti
What it is
This is a package of spaghetti noodles made entirely from whole wheat flour. Whole wheat flour includes the bran and germ of the wheat kernel, which gives the pasta a heartier texture and a slightly nuttier flavor compared to pasta made from refined flour. It is a staple for many home cooks looking for a more substantial pasta option. The organic certification indicates it was produced without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.
How people cook with it
Spaghetti is a versatile pasta shape that pairs well with a wide variety of sauces and ingredients.
- With marinara sauce
- In baked pasta dishes
- Tossed with pesto
- With meatballs
To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the spaghetti and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until al dente, meaning it is tender but still has a slight bite. Drain the pasta well, reserving some of the cooking water. Return the drained spaghetti to the pot and toss immediately with your favorite sauce, adding a little reserved pasta water if needed to help the sauce coat the noodles evenly.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike traditional refined white flour spaghetti, this whole wheat version has a darker color and a more robust, earthy flavor. Its texture is also generally firmer and chewier, holding up well to heartier sauces.
Who it is for
Home cooks who enjoy making classic Italian-inspired meals.
