Seitenbacher Dinkel Kurkuma Happen
What it is
These are small, shaped pasta pieces made from spelt flour and infused with turmeric. The spelt flour gives them a slightly nutty flavor and a firmer texture compared to wheat pasta. The turmeric adds a warm, earthy note and a vibrant yellow color. They are designed to cook quickly and absorb sauces well, making them a convenient choice for everyday meals. The unique shape holds onto sauces effectively.
How people cook with it
These pasta shapes are versatile and can be incorporated into a variety of dishes. They are ideal for weeknight dinners when you need something quick and satisfying.
- Mixed into pasta salads
- Served with light cream sauces
- Tossed with pesto
- Added to hearty vegetable soups
To prepare, bring a generous pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the Dinkel Kurkuma Happen and stir gently to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until al dente, which means tender but still firm to the bite. Drain the pasta thoroughly. You can then toss it with your favorite sauce, add it to a salad, or incorporate it into a warm dish. The turmeric-infused pasta will add a pleasant color and subtle flavor to your creation.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike standard wheat pasta, these Happen are made with spelt, offering a different flavor profile and texture. The inclusion of turmeric provides a distinct color and a mild, earthy taste that is not found in plain pasta. Their small size also makes them cook faster than larger pasta shapes.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a flavorful and colorful pasta alternative will appreciate these Happen.
