What it is

Gemelli is a type of pasta shaped like two short strands of spaghetti twisted together, resembling a helix or a double helix. The name 'gemelli' means 'twins' in Italian. It is typically made from durum wheat semolina and water, then cooked before being used in dishes.

Why it's used

Gemelli pasta is used as a base for various pasta dishes, often served with sauces, vegetables, and meats. Its shape holds sauces well, making it a versatile ingredient in both hot entrees and cold pasta salads. Manufacturers use it in prepared meals, deli salads, and frozen dinners.

Health notes

Gemelli pasta is a source of carbohydrates and provides some protein and fiber. It is not a major source of added sugars, fats, or artificial ingredients. Regulatory bodies like the FDA have not set specific intake limits for pasta itself, as it is considered a standard food item. Consumption as part of a balanced diet is generally recommended by dietary guidelines.

Allergen info

Gemelli pasta is made from wheat, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It also contains gluten.
