Whole wheat flour includes the entire grain kernel, which gives it a slightly different texture and flavor compared to pasta made from refined flour. This pasta is a good source of carbohydrates and can be a versatile base for many meals. It cooks to a tender yet firm consistency, making it suitable for a variety of sauces and preparations.
How people cook with it

- With marinara sauce
- In pasta salads
- With pesto
- As a side dish
To cook, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the whole wheat thin spaghetti and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until al dente, meaning it is tender but still has a slight bite. Drain the pasta well, reserving some of the cooking water. Toss immediately with your favorite sauce, adding a little reserved pasta water if needed to help the sauce coat the strands evenly. Serve hot.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to regular refined white spaghetti, whole wheat spaghetti has a nuttier flavor and a slightly chewier texture due to the presence of the entire wheat kernel. Its color is also a darker, more natural brown.
