More Info

The name “fusilli” comes from the Italian word “fuso,” which means “spindle” or “screw.” This shape is commonly used in various pasta dishes and is appreciated for its ability to hold sauces and ingredients, creating a flavourful and satisfying eating experience

Texture & Cooking

Wholewheat fusilli has a firm, chewy texture when cooked. It is typically boiled in salted water until it is al dente, which means it still retains a slight firmness. It has a slightly longer cook time than white pasta.

Sauce Pairings

Wholewheat fusilli pairs well with a wide range of sauces, including:

Creamy sauces: The twisted shape of fusilli allows it to hold creamy sauces like Alfredo or cheese-based sauces, resulting in a rich and satisfying dish.
Tomato-based sauces: fusilli’s spiral shape is excellent for capturing chunky tomato sauces with vegetables or meats. This paired with the nuttiness of the wholewheat creates a delightful burst of flavours.
