What is it?
Plantain pasta is a special gluten-free pasta made from premium plantain flour and fresh free-range eggs. It has a nutty flavour and a firm texture, making it a versatile choice for preparing your favourite recipes, including creamy sauces and hearty ragùs.
This innovative pasta serves as a lower-carb alternative to traditional wheat-based noodles, making it suitable for a variety of dietary preferences, especially for those following a paleo or high-protein diet.
Plantains are naturally rich in fibre and resistant starch, which can support digestion by acting as a prebiotic, promoting a healthy gut microbiome. They can also help reduce blood sugar fluctuations and keep you feeling full longer after meals, providing steady energy throughout the day. The addition of free-range eggs offers an excellent source of essential healthy fats, protein, minerals, and vitamins.

- Bring water to a boil in a saucepan.
