What’s good about wholemeal pasta

Wholemeal pasta certainly has benefits, although sometimes one tends to exaggerate them.

It has more fibers than ordinary “white” dry pasta, as it is made from an “unrefined” flour: that is to say, flour made using all parts of the grain, including the outer parts.

It is true that it has a (slightly) lower glycemic index, and that they have an excellent satiating effect, thanks to the fibers and fatty acids of which it is composed.

On the other hand, wholemeal pasta does not have much fewer calories than normal pasta (the difference is on average 30Kcal per 100 grams), nor a lower lipid load.

In short, it does not work miracles. But it tastes different, and you may like it.

What you will certainly like, however, is the Inox Bim equipment to cook it!
