About Egg pasta

Egg pasta is a traditional type of pasta made primarily from durum wheat flour and eggs, giving it a richer flavor and a golden hue compared to pasta made without eggs. Originating from Italian cuisine, it is commonly used in dishes like tagliatelle, pappardelle, and ravioli, where its smooth texture complements hearty sauces and fillings. Nutritionally, egg pasta is a good source of carbohydrates, providing energy, and contains protein from both the wheat and eggs. It also offers small amounts of essential vitamins like B vitamins and minerals such as iron. However, its caloric density is higher than egg-free varieties, and it may contain more cholesterol due to the egg content. Moderation is key, especially for those watching their cholesterol intake or managing weight. Pairing egg pasta with nutrient-rich vegetables and lean proteins can enhance its overall nutritional profile and balance.
