Gluten Free Fusilli Pasta
What it is
It is crafted from a blend of alternative flours, such as corn, rice, or quinoa, to mimic the texture and taste of traditional pasta. The spiral shape of fusilli is designed to hold sauces well, making it a versatile choice for many dishes.
How people cook with it
This pasta is a great base for a variety of meals. It works well in hot dishes and cold salads.
- Tossed with pesto
- Mixed into pasta salads
- Served with marinara sauce
- Baked in casseroles
To cook, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Cook according to package directions, usually for about 8-12 minutes, until al dente. It is important to taste a piece to check for doneness, as cooking times can vary. Drain the pasta well and immediately toss with your desired sauce or dressing to prevent it from clumping. For pasta salads, rinse with cold water after draining.
How it differs from similar foods
The spiral shape remains effective at capturing sauces, but it may absorb liquids differently during cooking.
How to keep the rest
Store the uncooked pasta in its original packaging in a cool, dry place. Once cooked, refrigerate any leftovers promptly in an airtight container. It is best to consume cooked pasta within 2-3 days for optimal quality.
