GRANO-10

Description:

Chefs looking for texture, contrast and flavor will find this golden colored grain an asset to their menus. Grano is an ancient grain that carries a mild, pasta-like flavor. Grano, which means "grain" in Italian, is a select duran wheat that is used to make pasta and its simplicity makes it perfect as an addition to soups, casseroles, pilaf, stuffing and more. The light color of the grain makes it stand out for unique plate presentation. Prepared it can be topped with Alfredo sauce or used in cold salads. What makes it appealing to chefs is the hold time, Grano can hold better than pasta on the steam table and can be reheated several times without adverse consequences.

Ingredient Statement:

Durum Wheat. (Contains Wheat, Gluten)
