Description

For cooks who enjoy a richer wheat flavor and a heartier bite, this spaghetti keeps the bran and germ right where they belong: in the pasta. La Molisana stone-grinds whole durum wheat at a low temperature, preventing heat damage that can dull taste. The dough then meets bronze dies, picking up fine ridges that capture oil and vegetable pieces rather than letting them slip away. Expect a nine-minute boil for al dente, or seven if you plan to finish the pasta directly in sauce. The deeper color signals whole grain authenticity, not coloring agents. Pair with roasted seasonal vegetables, anchovy and garlic, or a splash of good olive oil and shaved hard cheese. Whole grain absorbs more moisture, so keep a ladle of pasta water nearby to loosen the sauce at the table. Opened bags should be transferred to an airtight jar and used within eight months for peak flavor; natural oils in the bran are best enjoyed fresh. When easing skeptical diners into whole wheat, combine half-and-half with traditional semolina spaghetti; both strands cook in about the same time, so they mingle seamlessly. This pasta’s sturdy structure also shines in baked dishes—par-boil six minutes, arrange in a casserole with tomato sauce and cheese, then finish under a hot oven until the top forms a savory crust. One simple swap brings you a fuller wheat taste without changing your favorite recipes. Ingredients: Durum Wheat Semolina. Contains Wheat. May contain traces of Soy.
