Gluten Free Organic Brown Rice Penne Pasta

Ingredients: Organic Brown Rice Flour

Origin: Italy

Our gluten free organic brown rice penne pasta is perfect for those who prefer an alternative to classic wheat pasta without having to give up excellent flavour.

Our gluten free organic penne pasta is produced in the Piedmont countryside of central Italy where the fields are certified organic and only those who excel in organic production are awarded this certification.

Our pasta is traditionally produced with a slow drying process at low temperatures that maintains its exquisite flavour and ‘al dente’ texture after cooking.

Only local crops are selected and the best grains harvested  to ensure high nutritional standards and a perfect flavour.

Our pasta is produced in a natural and traditional manner. By adding only water, a highly digestible product is obtained that nourishes and has got a low glycaemic index.

Gluten free brown rice pasta has a more accentuated colour and flavour than refined rice pasta and is naturally rich in potassium and magnesium, it is also highly digestible. It perfectly maintains an “al dente” texture after cooking.

Packaging

Packaging

Most of our bulk products, 1kg or over are packed in polyethylene which is fully recyclable with the supermarket carrier bag scheme. There is a little tip on the corner of our labels which recommends to peel off the label before recycling. Another way to to identify these bags is to stretch them slightly (if they stretch then recycle them at any local carrier bag scheme).

Smaller orders from 30g - 500g will be sent using a resealable kraft pouch so that we can keep your postage costs down and your food fresh
