Nature's Legacy Spelt Spaghetti
What it is
This is a type of pasta made from spelt flour. Spelt is an ancient grain, a relative of wheat, known for its nutty flavor and slightly chewy texture. The pasta is formed into the classic spaghetti shape, a long, thin, solid, cylindrical noodle. It is a pantry staple for many households looking for alternatives to traditional durum wheat pasta.
How people cook with it
Spaghetti is a versatile pasta that pairs well with a wide variety of sauces and ingredients. It is a foundation for many classic and contemporary dishes.
- With marinara sauce
- Tossed with pesto
- In pasta salads
- With garlic and oil
To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the spelt spaghetti and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until al dente, which means it should be tender but still firm to the bite. Drain the pasta thoroughly. It can then be immediately combined with your favorite sauce or tossed with olive oil and seasonings. Serve hot as a main course or side dish.
How it differs from similar foods
