About Uncooked penne pasta

Uncooked penne pasta is a popular type of Italian pasta known for its cylindrical, tube-like shape and diagonal cuts at both ends. Made primarily from durum wheat semolina and water, it serves as a versatile base for countless dishes and is a staple in Mediterranean cuisine. A rich source of carbohydrates, penne provides energy and contains small amounts of protein and fiber. Some versions are enriched with essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins, while whole wheat varieties offer higher fiber content for improved digestion and prolonged satiety. Low in fat and cholesterol-free, penne can be part of a balanced diet when paired with nutrient-dense ingredients such as vegetables, lean proteins, and heart-healthy oils. However, traditional penne is relatively high in calories and may spike blood sugar for those with insulin resistance when consumed in excess. It's best enjoyed in moderation as part of a health-conscious meal.
