Spelt is an ancient grain cultivated thousands of years ago and only recently rediscovered. Our Biona Organic Wholegrain Spelt Penne Pasta retains all the goodness of this ancient grain. It's smooth texture, fantastic flavour, and high fibre content make it a great alternative to wheat pasta. Best yet, although not gluten free, spelt can be tolerated by some people with wheat allergies. To serve, simply combine with Biona pasta sauce or pesto for a nutritious, organic meal. Also included in the spelt pasta range are organic wholegrain and white spaghetti, fusilli and lasagne sheets.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

The nutty flavor of the whole spelt grain really comes through, and I love that it's a wholegrain pasta that doesn't turn to mush. It held its shape nicely in a hearty sauce, and the texture felt more substantial than regular penne.

Benjamin B. ★★★★★

Cooked up perfectly al dente and held its shape even after a few minutes in the sauce, which is rare for whole wheat. The texture is pleasantly firm without being chewy, and it’s been my go-to for a quick weeknight dinner.

William G. ★★★★☆

The nutty flavor of the spelt comes through even with a heavy pesto, and the pasta held its bite perfectly after simmering. Only wish the package were bigger since my family finished it in one sitting.
