Pasta is one of the most famous Italian dishes. Spaghetti, fusilli, penne, linguine, lasagna, ravioli, tortellini ... the list is very long. Pasta has always been a great meal choice and it is very easy to prepare a great pasta dinner if you have the right ingredients.
What separates the mediocre from the good and the good from the superb pastas? Simple - the flour. The best pastas are made from either durum wheat, semolina flour or hard spring wheat. These are hard wheat flours which dry harder than softer flour and give that delicate al dente crunch which pasta lovers demand.
