Wholegrain Pasta
De Cecco wholegrain pasta keeps the full goodness of whole durum wheat, bronze drawn and slow dried — the wholesome choice with real Italian texture and flavour.
Quick answer
De Cecco wholegrain pasta is made from whole durum wheat, keeping more of the grain's natural fibre and character. It is bronze drawn and slow dried like our classics, so it stays firm and full of flavour rather than heavy or dry.
Wholegrain pasta should taste like a pleasure, not a penance. By using whole durum wheat and our traditional method, we keep more of the grain while still delivering a firm, satisfying bite.
De Cecco wholegrain durum wheat pasta has even featured in independent University of Milan research into wholegrain pasta quality across the Italian market.
