Monograno Organic Kamut Chiocciole Pasta
Hidden within the shape
is the taste of Khorasan Wheat Pasta
Known commercially as Kamut, this wheat from ancient times has its own distinct flavor. It's hard to explain, and it's hard to describe the taste and it's hard to imagine that a three ingredient pasta can taste different. It's not like a farro pasta with it's earthy tones, or squid ink with it's deep tones, no, it's something else, that makes this pasta taste good!
Perhaps because it's different, perhaps because it's closer to the beginning of time, or, because the nutritional properties shine through, this pasta is worth trying!
Many foods do best when tested in their "environment", on rice, in a soup etc.
Even some pastas do best when tasted and served with sauces. In some cases, a food like the Kamut Pasta, shines with or without anything. Bare naked, these taste good, add a little salt and olive oil and you have a complete meal!
