About Spaghetti, protein-fortified, cooked, enriched (n x 6.25)
This pasta variety is made from enriched wheat flour that has been fortified with additional protein, resulting in a higher protein content compared to standard pasta. A 100-gram serving provides 8.9 grams of protein, making it a more substantial source of this essential macronutrient than traditional pasta options. The enrichment process also includes added vitamins and minerals, particularly B vitamins and iron, which support energy metabolism and help prevent nutritional deficiencies.
The cooking process for this pasta is similar to regular spaghetti - it's typically boiled in salted water until al dente, which usually takes 8-10 minutes. The higher protein content makes it an excellent choice for vegetarians, athletes, or anyone looking to increase their protein intake through plant-based sources. It works well in traditional Italian dishes like spaghetti with marinara sauce, but also holds up beautifully in cold pasta salads, stir-fries, and casseroles. The added protein helps create a more satisfying meal that can help maintain stable blood sugar levels and promote feelings of fullness. While it contains 30.9 grams of carbohydrates per 100-gram serving, the protein content helps balance the macronutrient profile, making it a more nutritionally complete option than standard pasta varieties.
