Organic Whole Wheat Thin Spaghetti
What it is
This is a package of organic whole wheat thin spaghetti. It is made from whole wheat flour, which means it includes the bran and germ of the wheat kernel. This gives it a slightly heartier texture and a nuttier flavor compared to pasta made from refined flour. The thin spaghetti shape is a classic choice for many pasta dishes.
How people cook with it
Thin spaghetti is a versatile pasta shape that works well in a variety of preparations.
- With tomato sauces
- In seafood dishes
- With pesto
- In pasta salads
To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the thin spaghetti and stir gently to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until al dente, which means it should be tender but still have a slight bite. Drain the pasta well, reserving some of the cooking water. Toss immediately with your favorite sauce or ingredients to prevent it from clumping together. The reserved pasta water can be used to help emulsify and thicken sauces.
How it differs from similar foods
