- Is Rummo Fusilli gluten-free?
- No. It is made from durum wheat semolina and contains wheat and gluten, so it is not suitable for celiac disease or a gluten-free diet.
- How long should I cook it?
- About 8 minutes for al dente. Start tasting a minute early, since the rough texture can soften quickly if left in the water.
- What is fusilli best used for?
- The spirals and rough surface suit chunky meat or vegetable sauces, pesto, and baked pasta dishes where sauce needs to cling.
- Is it vegetarian?
- Yes. The pasta itself is vegetarian, made from durum wheat semolina and water, with no meat or dairy ingredients.
- How does it compare with regular supermarket fusilli?
- Rummo uses 100% durum wheat semolina and slow drying, which reviewers say gives a firmer bite and better sauce grip. Basic supermarket fusilli is cheaper but often softer.
- How should I store it?
- Keep it in a cool, dry cupboard in the sealed bag or an airtight container. The bag is not resealable, so transfer leftovers after opening.
