La Molisana Pasta Proteica
La Molisana's high-protein range: three bronze-drawn shapes made from durum wheat semolina and lupin flour, with 23% protein.
La Molisana Pasta Proteica is a high-protein range made from durum wheat semolina and lupin flour. The lupin adds plant protein and fibre and, together with the wheat proteins, gives a complete amino acid profile; according to the brand the pasta is also rich in phosphorus and a source of vitamin B1, iron, zinc and potassium. The brand states 23% protein.
The range has three bronze-drawn shapes, two short and one long: Spaghetti con Lupini, Penne con Lupini and Fusilli con Lupini. They come in 400 g packs and cook in 7–8 minutes, faster than the brand's classic shapes, while the taste and firmness stay close to traditional pasta.
The range is meant for people who do sport, follow a vegetarian diet or want more plant protein. The brand suggests serving it al dente with sautéed vegetables and Mediterranean herbs, or with pulses and fish. It contains gluten and lupin.
