55p per 100gProduct information
100% Organic Whole Durum Wheat Semolina.
From Gragnano near Naples in Italy.
Suitable for Vegetarians.
Garofalo has been making pasta for over 300 years in Gragnano near Naples in Italy, the home of pasta. Garofalo whole wheat pasta is made from organic whole durum wheat semolina and shaped through a bronze die to produce quality dry pasta with a slightly nutty flavour. Whole wheat pasta is made using the whole grain and has high protein content, resulting in nutritious pasta with an al dente texture and superb taste.
Penne are probably the most popular tubular pasta types around, The word Penne means "quills" and refers to straight tubes of pasta cut diagonally at the ends (like a quill pen). Rigate means "ridges" which helps hold more sauce on the pasta than the smooth penne type.
Penne makes excellent and versatile pasta for many applications because of the very practical design. The angle cut of the end makes a large surface area for sauce to fall into and be drawn up the tube which means they are great for pairing with thick tomato sauces, meat sauces, chunky vegetable sauces, and thick cream sauces.

Healthy option
Even my picky son loves this
Exquisite, exceptional, outstanding!
The Biona Organic Wholewheat Pasta range and Garofalo Organic Whole Wheat Pasta range are outstanding – I love them equally. Both brands of pasta have an exquisite, glorious nutty flavour and beautiful firm “al dente” texture which they retain throughout cooking – the depth of flavour and texture is exceptional. All are a lovely deep bronze colour and are organic, natural and nutritious. Highly recommend Biona and Garofalo in equal measure – they are outstanding, exquisite, exceptional!
Staple pasta
Good flavour and texture
Nice pasta
Love this pasta, more fibre and even though it’s healthy still has a good flavour that doesn’t taste like cardboard
Nice mild wholewheat flavour
But horrible pasta tubes so thick and hard to swallow. i like the twists in the same range but these were vile.

This is by far the nicest whole-wheat pasta I've tasted and the different types are equally good.
