Gallo Pasta Fina
Gallo range of thin, quick-cooking dry pasta from Spain: spaghetti, plumas and hélices ready in about 3 minutes, fideos in about 1 minute.
Gallo Pasta Fina is the quick-cooking range of Pastas Gallo. It is thinner than classic pasta, so it cooks faster and has a softer, lighter texture. According to the official site, spaghetti, plumas (penne) and hélices are ready in about 3 minutes and fideos in about 1 minute; the maker still advises checking the pack and draining the pasta as soon as it is done, because thin pasta overcooks easily.
The range has six products: Fideos Pasta Fina, Spaghetti Pasta Fina, Plumas Pasta Fina and Hélices Pasta Fina, plus spaghetti and hélices whose names say «con tomate y espinacas». The site does not give the ingredient lists for this range.
Gallo presents it as a light option for dinner or as a side for meat or fish, and suggests light sauces, seafood, vegetables, olive oil and garlic, as well as pesto or carbonara. The range is part of the brand's dry pasta.
