Wholegrain spaghetti is far more flavoursome and nutritious than standard white pasta. This spaghetti from Biona is a particularly high-quality wholegrain pasta with a rough texture that absorbs flavour from the sauces around it.
This is the advantage of wholegrain: the rougher texture creates a larger surface area and flavours are more easily absorbed into the pasta. In addition, the pasta is less slippery.
Spelt flour is a particularly rich flour that is high in protein and satisfies the stomach. It is filling and feels "heavy", so you only need a little to fill you up.
This pasta contains no added salt - just 100% pure spelt flour.
