WHAT DOES FREGULA SARDA PASTA TASTE LIKE?
The nutty taste with pleasant spice is striking. There are also slight nuances of smoke, which are achieved by roasting the pasta. Nevertheless, the light yellow pasta is mild and is therefore ideal for a wide variety of dishes in healthy cuisine. Sardinian Fregola does not differ in preparation from other Sardinian pasta types. The cooking time is 12 minutes for a pleasantly firm bite and the full development of the nutty smoky aromas. Two breezes of salt underline the aroma and let the taste of Sardinia melt on the tongue. If the pasta is to be prepared a little bite-proof, 10 minutes of cooking is sufficient. The same should be noted if you swirl the small pasta balls in a sauce after cooking and thus extend the cooking time.
