  • Bring a large pan of water to the boil and add a generous pinch of salt. Add your pasta and cook according to the timing on the packet. 

    Check the pasta a little early to ensure it’s perfectly al dente. Drain, keeping some of the cooking water aside. Toss the pasta in your sauce, using the reserved water to loosen and coat it beautifully.

  • Store Northern Pasta Co’s pasta in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its premium quality. Keep the packaging sealed to preserve the fresh, nutty flavour of the British spelt and ensure the pasta stays perfect for your next delicious meal.

Frequently Asked Questions for Northern Pasta Co, British Spelt Rigatoni

What Is Spelt Pasta?
Spelt pasta is made from ancient grain spelt, known for its nutty flavour, delicate texture, and high nutritional value. It’s a great alternative to regular pasta, offering a higher fibre content and a more digestible gluten structure, making it gentler on the stomach.
Is Spelt Pasta Healthy?
Yes! British spelt pasta is naturally high in fibre, protein, and essential minerals like iron and magnesium. Unlike heavily processed white pasta, spelt contains complex carbohydrates that support sustained energy and better digestion.
How Do You Cook Spelt Rigatoni?
Cook British spelt rigatoni just like traditional pasta—boil in plenty of salted water for around 8-10 minutes until al dente. Its sturdy texture holds up beautifully to rich sauces, making it perfect for hearty ragùs, creamy sauces, or simple olive oil and garlic dishes.
Does Spelt Pasta Taste Different from Regular Pasta?
Yes, spelt pasta has a slightly nutty, earthy flavour, adding depth to dishes. Its firm texture and ability to absorb sauces beautifully make it a favourite among artisan pasta lovers.
