Squid Ink Linguine Pasta 250g
Description
Weight: 250g
These artisanal linguine flavoured with squid ink have been made with 100% semolina from central Italy and with wheat germ, the heart of the wheat grain which is normally removed when the grain is milled and therefore not found in most types of pasta. Bronze drawn, they have a rough texture and are very porous and therefore able to absorb sauces really well. This pasta is healthy, nutritious and tasty!
This is the kind of pasta eaten before the Second World War, before mills started refining the wheat more. It releases a subtle but exceptional flavour of wheat when cooked, is darker in colour (the cooking water also turns darker, as the germ is released in the pan) and tastes incredible even with just olive oil and a little sea salt.
Wheat germ is not only rich in flavour but is also full of nourishing active ingredients and the way that the pasta has been produced means that it retains high levels of Vitamin E, that is very important for its antioxidant power, Vitamin D which helps our body in preventing cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure and high level of cholesterol and vegetable proteins.
Serving suggestions: These deep black linguine pair well with fish or seafood, they would also go well with a simple tomato sauce.
