Ronzoni Whole Grain Linguine

What it is

This is a type of pasta made from whole wheat flour. Whole wheat flour includes the bran, germ, and endosperm of the wheat kernel. This gives the pasta a slightly different texture and a more robust flavor compared to pasta made from refined flour. It is a dry pasta product, meaning it is dehydrated for a long shelf life.

How people cook with it

Whole grain linguine can be used in many of the same ways as regular linguine. It is a versatile pasta that pairs well with a variety of sauces and ingredients.

• With hearty meat sauces
• Tossed with pesto
• In seafood dishes
• As a base for pasta salads

To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the whole grain linguine and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until the pasta is al dente, which means it is tender but still has a slight bite. Drain the pasta well, reserving some of the cooking water. Toss the drained linguine immediately with your chosen sauce, adding a little of the reserved pasta water if needed to help the sauce coat the strands evenly.

How it differs from similar foods

Compared to traditional linguine made with refined flour, whole grain linguine has a darker color and a nuttier flavor. Its texture can also be slightly firmer. These differences come from the inclusion of the entire wheat kernel in its production.

Who it is for

How to keep the rest

Store any unused portion of the dry pasta in its original packaging or an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Ensure it is sealed tightly to prevent moisture absorption and maintain freshness. Proper storage will keep the pasta from becoming stale or attracting pests.
