About Twisty pasta
Twisty pasta, commonly referred to as fusilli or rotini, is a spiral-shaped pasta originating from Italy. Made from durum wheat semolina, water, and sometimes fortified with vitamins, it boasts a firm texture ideal for holding onto rich sauces, creamy dressings, or hearty soups. Its shape makes it versatile for a range of cuisines, though it is traditionally paired with Italian dishes. Twisty pasta is a source of energy due to its carbohydrate content and provides small amounts of protein and fiber, especially when made from whole grains. Whole-grain versions of this pasta are higher in nutrients and fiber, contributing to gut health and sustained energy. However, refined versions may be less nutrient-dense and higher in simple carbohydrates. Pairing it with lean proteins and vegetables can enhance its nutritional value while keeping meal options balanced and satisfying.
