Biona Organic White Spelt Spinach Tagliatelle contains spelt, a nutritious grain with a smooth texture and delicate nutty taste. Spelt is one of the oldest cultivated grains and is high in fibre, with a higher content of protein and vitamins than wheat. Although not gluten free, spelt can be tolerated by some people with wheat allergies.
Cooked up al dente in about seven minutes and the nutty spelt flavor really comes through, even with the spinach in the dough. The texture is smoother than regular whole wheat pasta, which makes it feel a bit more elegant for a weeknight dinner.
The spinach gives these tagliatelle a lovely green tint that makes the plate look so fresh, and they held up perfectly in the pan without turning mushy. Cooked them for a quick weeknight dinner and the smooth texture was just right with a simple olive oil and garlic sauce.
The nutty taste of the spelt really comes through, and the texture holds up perfectly even after a few extra minutes in the pot. Cooked up a big batch for dinner and the whole family went back for seconds.
