About Macarrao parafuso

Macarrão Parafuso, also known as spiral or fusilli pasta, is a popular type of pasta originating from Italy. Its corkscrew shape is designed to hold onto sauces, making it a versatile choice for various dishes. Made primarily from durum wheat semolina, it provides a source of complex carbohydrates, which are a primary energy source for the body. Macarrão Parafuso is low in fat and cholesterol-free, making it a nutritious base for balanced meals when paired with vegetables, lean proteins, or healthy fats. However, white pasta variants may lack fiber and micronutrients found in whole-grain versions, which can be a healthier alternative. Traditionally a staple of Italian cuisine, it has been embraced worldwide and incorporated into countless fusion recipes. To optimize its nutritional profile, consider whole-grain spiral pasta and nutrient-rich toppings for a wholesome and satisfying meal.
