About Cooked twist pasta

Cooked Twist Pasta, often called fusilli, is a popular noodle shape known for its spiral design that effortlessly holds sauces and seasonings. Originating in Italy, it is a staple in Mediterranean cuisine and commonly used in hot pasta dishes, salads, or baked recipes. Made primarily from durum wheat semolina and water, this pasta provides a source of carbohydrates for sustained energy. While it's low in fat, its nutritional profile depends on preparation and accompanying ingredients. Whole grain versions offer added fiber and nutrients, supporting digestion and heart health. However, traditional refined versions may lack these benefits. Pairing it with lean proteins, fresh vegetables, and olive oil can enhance its healthfulness, while creamy or processed sauces may increase calorie and fat content. Practical and versatile, Cooked Twist Pasta is a delicious foundation for countless balanced meals.
