Gallo Integral
Gallo range of toasted wholegrain dry pasta from Spain made with wholegrain semolina: spaghetti, ridged plumas, hélices and fideos.
Gallo Integral, sold as Gallo Nature Integral, is the wholegrain range of Pastas Gallo. According to the official site it is made from wholegrain semolina and toasted, which gives it a distinctive, fuller flavour. The maker says the recipe was recently improved with a new production process that keeps the wheat grain whole, which it links to better nutritional quality. The share of wholegrain is not stated on the site.
The range has four products: Spaghetti integral, Plumas rayadas integrales (ridged penne), Hélices (spirals similar to fusilli) and Fideo nº 1, a thin noodle for soups. Cooking time depends on the shape and is printed on the pack.
Gallo suggests the range for dishes with vegetables, legumes, meat or fish and for light sauces. Wholegrain pasta contains more fibre than pasta from refined semolina; it suits people who want more whole grains in their diet. The range belongs to dry pasta from durum wheat.
