Dry Pasta — photo 1

Dry pasta as sold, such as spaghetti, penne or fusilli, made from durum wheat semolina and water and boiled for 8-12 minutes. A 75 g dry portion gives about 280 kcal, mostly from starch, and 10 g of protein, and it is high in selenium, an amount that varies with the soil the wheat grew in, with useful manganese and copper. These values are for unenriched pasta. Pasta weighs about 2.4 times as much after boiling: 75 g dry cooks to about 180 g.
