Explore Cuisine has redefined pasta. They manufacture such kinds as below:
They also have rice pastas,in the fuslli,rigatoni and macaroni shape.I like the idea of red lentils and was excited to try the penne which is a favorite too.
This is what it looks like uncooked.
It's kind of a reddish - orange in color. Would it taste bean-y. Cooking it like regular pasta will tell. I boiled it in slightly salted tap water as I would do with the wheat kind.
It only takes eight to ten minutes to cook al dente.
Did it have a beany flavor? Only slightly It' also still had a pale orange flavor. However it tasted like regular pasta with my Mom's homemade sauce recipe.
It was delicious. The only problem is that two ounce box only serves two people. You will need another box for a family of four. I did have leftovers which will be cooked with a butter sauce tomorrow.
As the temps drop, think Explore Cuisine beans and rice pastas. They are the perfect nourishment for chilly days and nights. Try them with different sauces and veggies for a total healthy treat.
