pastas and noodles
corn pasta
Full of vitamins, especially Vitamin C and B-vitamins, and packed with fibre, this is a great alternative to wheat pasta. You can find a good variety of shapes – from spaghetti to penne and fusilli – and the taste and texture is excellent. It’s a good idea to add a tablespoon of olive oil into the boiling water when cooking, and it’s important to stir regularly, both of which will prevent the pasta sticking together. Sometimes the corn is combined with other ingredients such as vegetables, especially spinach, and rice.
