About Rigatoni
Rigatoni is a type of tube-shaped pasta originating from Italy, renowned for its ridged surface and wide size that makes it ideal for holding thick sauces. Made primarily from durum wheat semolina and water, it is a carbohydrate-rich food that provides energy, often included in hearty Italian dishes like baked pasta and robust meat-based sauces. Rigatoni is low in fat and cholesterol but can be high in calories depending on preparation and portion size. It offers a modest amount of protein along with some essential nutrients, like iron and B vitamins, due to the durum wheat content. While it’s not inherently unhealthy, the nutritional profile can vary based on whether it's made with refined or whole-grain flour. Opting for whole-grain versions adds dietary fiber, making it a more heart-healthy choice. Moderation and balanced pairings with vegetables and lean proteins can make rigatoni part of a wholesome, satisfying meal.
