Eden Organic Spelt Spaghetti
What it is
This is a package of 100% whole grain spelt spaghetti. Spelt is an ancient grain that has been cultivated for thousands of years. It is a type of wheat that is known for its nutty flavor and slightly chewy texture. This pasta is made with organic spelt flour, meaning it was grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. It is a wholesome choice for those seeking a pasta alternative.
How people cook with it
Whole grain spelt spaghetti can be used in many of the same ways as traditional wheat pasta.
- Tossed with pesto
- Served with marinara sauce
- Mixed into pasta salads
- Baked in casseroles
To cook, bring a large pot of lightly 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 well. You can then toss it with your favorite sauce, add it to soups, or chill it for a pasta salad. The cooking time may vary slightly from regular pasta.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to durum wheat spaghetti, spelt spaghetti has a slightly sweeter, nuttier taste. Its texture can be a bit softer and chewier. The whole grain nature means it retains more of the natural bran and germ of the spelt kernel, contributing to its distinct flavor profile and color.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a flavorful and wholesome pasta option will appreciate this product.
How to keep the rest
Store any unused portion of the spelt spaghetti in a cool, dry place. Ensure the package is sealed tightly to maintain freshness and prevent moisture from entering. This will help preserve the quality of the pasta until you are ready to use it again.
