About Star-shaped pasta
Star-shaped pasta, or "stelline," is a small, delicate variety of pasta originating from Italian cuisine. Made primarily from durum wheat semolina and water, its tiny star shape makes it ideal for soups, broths, or light dishes. Stelline often appeals to children due to its playful design while providing the same nutritional benefits as traditional pasta. It is a good source of carbohydrates, serving as an energy booster, and contains some protein and fiber, depending on the flour used. Durum wheat-based options are typically low in fat but can vary in nutritional value when combined with sauces or toppings. While not inherently rich in vitamins or minerals, it can be fortified or paired with nutrient-dense ingredients like vegetables, legumes, or lean protein for a balanced meal. Moderation is key, as pasta is calorie-dense and may impact blood sugar levels in large portions.
