Linguine is a type of pasta originating from Italy, characterized by its flat, narrow shape that is slightly wider than spaghetti but thinner than fettuccine. Made primarily from durum wheat semolina and water, linguine is prized for its ability to pair beautifully with both light and creamy sauces, as well as seafood dishes. As a source of carbohydrates, it provides energy and can be part of a balanced diet. Whole wheat varieties of linguine offer added nutritional benefits, including higher fiber content, which aids in digestion and helps maintain stable blood sugar levels. However, traditional linguine is low in protein and can be calorie-dense, especially when paired with rich sauces. Moderation and mindful preparation can help make linguine a nourishing addition to meals, supporting a balanced approach to Italian-inspired cuisine.
