A nutritious and hearty pasta option, beloved for its robust and rich flavour. Crafted from 100% Italian wheat from the region of Franciacorta, this type of pasta retains more fibre and nutrients compared to traditional refined wheat pasta, offering a healthier alternative as it  is a source of essential nutrients and fibre without sacrificing taste
 
Ideal for a wide range of dishes, from hearty pasta bakes, paired with a classic marinara sauce, tossed in olive oil with vegetables, or incorporated into fresh salads making it a versatile and wholesome choice for pasta lovers. This pasta is a rigate variety meaning it has a ridged surface to the tube shape which gives a satisfying texture while holding sauces and flavours, enhancing every bite.
 
Originating in Italy, pasta has a rich and storied history dating back centuries. Wholewheat penne rigate is a modern variation that reflects the growing interest in healthier eating habits. While traditional pasta is typically made from refined durum wheat flour, wholewheat pasta emerged as a response to the demand for more nutritious options. By incorporating all of the grain into the pasta-making process, whole wheat penne rigate offers a way to enjoy the beloved Italian staple while reaping the nutritional benefits of fibre, vitamins, and minerals inherent in whole grains.
