About Orechiettq pasta

Orecchiette pasta, meaning "little ears" in Italian, is a small, ear-shaped pasta that originates from the Puglia region of southern Italy. Traditionally made with just semolina flour, water, and salt, it is a simple yet versatile pasta often paired with hearty sauces or vegetables like broccoli rabe. Its unique shape is perfect for capturing chunky sauces, enhancing flavor with every bite. Orecchiette is a good source of carbohydrates, providing long-lasting energy, and contains small amounts of protein and fiber, particularly if made with whole grain or semolina flour. While traditional orecchiette is low in fat and cholesterol, nutritional value can vary based on portion size and accompaniments. To make it a more balanced meal, pair it with lean protein and vegetables. However, prepared dishes that include heavy cream or cheese should be enjoyed in moderation.
