Wholegrain Einkorn Gigli Rigati
£3.90
If you're looking for a pasta that's a bit different from the others then look no further. This incredibly unique and delectable pasta is made with stoneground wholegrain einkorn, an incredible wheat that has been rediscovered in recent times as a power grain, higher in protein and minerals but safe for most gluten allergies. This results in a wonderful pasta, resplendent in honey, honeycomb, chamomile, vanilla and white chocolate. A wonderful base for any pasta sauce.
Einkorn is the most ancient wheat that was domesticated by hunter-gatherers and Neolithic farmers. It is not genetically related to modern wheat but in actual fact most modern wheat is developed from its wild stems. Rich in flavour, digestibility and nutrition, this pasta is fantastic for weekday suppers with an extra oomph of much-needed nutrients.
