## Description

desertcart.com : Papa Vince Organic Italian Pasta - Imported Whole Wheat Heirloom Grain from Italy: Non-Enriched, Bronze Die-Cut, High Fiber, Slow Carb, Slow-Dried, Artisan Busiate Pasta, Made in Italy : Grocery & Gourmet Food

Review: Authentic earthy cucina povera foundation, but also a departure from modern pasta expectations. - This pasta is really different. It is not made with Durum wheat, but with Tumminia, an ancient variety of wheat native to Sicily the way Khorasan wheat is native to the Khorasan region of ancient Persia. Tumminia has a higher quality nutrition profile than modern wheat. It is also lower gluten, making it more digestible, but this also means it is not as springy or chewy. So, the key is to forget al dente and cook it well. Whole grain Tumminia has an earthy and soft flavor that goes well with the simple bold sauces of the cucina povera tradition, but is definitely a departure from the bouncy convention of modern Durum pasta.
Review: It does not taste like the wheat we are used to in America - Tasty and satisfying! Kid approved from ages 7- 19! I have been looking for a healthy alternative to white pasta due to the unhealthy affects of white flour. I have tried everything. From wheat, quinoa, to rice pastas found in the grocery stores. None of these come close to the quality of taste, texture, and satisfying feeling after eating Papa Vince's "wheat" pasta. It does not taste like the wheat we are used to in America! It is a bit pricey for pasta, but the quantity is large and the noodles are thick enough to satisfy not only the belly, but the mouth as well. You get the satisfaction of a full meal after only eating a small portion and that means savings on the famiky budget! No overeating with Papa Vince's pasta! And there is no "bloated, overstuffed feeling either! I am hooked on the quality and taste! I feel good about serving quality food to my family! And I do believe we either save money or.come out equal because we eat less of the product and not have to eat twice as much of the cheaper, less quality pasta products just to feel full!

## Features

- DIABETIC FRIENDLY, LOW GI, HONEST WHOLE GRAIN: Papa Vince's ancient grain pasta is uniquely crafted using traditional cold stone grinding that preserves the whole grain matrix of bran, germ, and endosperm. This preservation contrasts sharply with refined grains, which lack this natural structure and often lead to rapid sugar spikes and energy crashes. Our pasta sustains steady energy levels and supports digestive health, offering a nourishing alternative that keeps you satisfied longer.
- NON-ENRICHED, NON-FORTIFIED, PASTA WITHOUT FOLIC ACID: Modern milling strips away fiber and more than 40 essential nutrients, only replacing a small portion with synthetic ones—a method commonly referred to as Enrichment or Fortification. Papa Vince distinguishes itself by utilizing cold-stone grinding to preserve the entire wheat berry (Germ, Bran, and Endosperm) in its original, nutrient-rich form. This meticulous technique maintains the grain's full spectrum of original fiber & nutrients, offering a truly unprocessed superfood pasta that brings both unrivaled taste and health benefits directly to your table
- AUTHENTIC PASTA FROM ITALY: Crafted from Tumminia, a rare and ancient grain native to Sicily, our pasta elevates every dish from mere meal to culinary masterpiece. As it simmers, Tumminia exudes a captivating sweet aroma that fills the air, enticing your senses and transporting you directly into the heart of Italian culinary traditions. Each bite offers an unforgettable experience, calling you back to savor its unique charm again and again.
- ORGANIC, NON GMO, UNTOUCHED BY MODERN TECHNOLOGY: Unlike their contemporary heavily hybridized counterparts, our ancient heirloom whole wheat grains reach skyward, distancing themselves naturally from pests and weeds, flourishing with no glyphosate, no pesticides, no insecticides, no herbicides, no fertilizers, and no artificial irrigation.
- EASY TO DIGEST, NO BLOATING: The result is a pasta that's not only rich in inherent vitamins and nutrients but also superior in flavor and digestibility. With Papa Vince, you indulge in a meal that's as close to nature as possible, crafted from the original components of the wheat without the need for synthetic nutrients or additives. Enjoy every bite of our wholesome pasta, where tradition meets nutrition.
- NUTRIENT POWERHOUSE WITH AN ASTOUNDING 1891 MG/KG OF POLYPHENOLS: our pasta is a rich source of B vitamins and minerals. Packed with naturally occurring B vitamins—B5 (40% DV), B12 (30% DV), B9 (14% DV), and B6 (15% DV)—it fuels energy, supports cellular health, boosts brain function, and aids red blood cell production. Furthermore, it offers abundant levels of manganese (70% DV), zinc (25% DV), and selenium (15% DV). The secret lies in our artisanal processes, which revive slow, low-temperature methods to preserve the integrity of ancient grains, ensuring the retention of these powerful antioxidants and essential nutrients.
- SKIP SUPPLEMENTS, EAT REAL FOOD: Crafted from ancient whole wheat heirloom Tumminia whole grains, it offers an unparalleled blend of 6X more fiber and 17 naturally occurring vitamins & minerals. Skip the supplements and nourish your body with the superior, untouched nutritional profile of real, unprocessed grains for your optimal health.
- SLOW DRIED FOR LOWER GLYCEMIC INDEX AND EASIER DIGESTION: Papa Vince employs a slow drying method at low temperatures to preserve the wheat's natural starch structure and protect the original gluten structure found in ancient grains. This artisanal process results in a pasta with a lower glycemic index, promoting stable blood sugar levels, and gluten in its ancient form—easier for your body to digest and more aligned with the natural diet humans have thrived on for millennia.
- SUSTAINABLE LOCAL FARMING, REVIVING ARTISANAL TRADITION: Tumminia and other ancient grains are often more adaptable to harsh climates and poor soil conditions without the need for chemical inputs. Because of their biodiversity and resilience, this makes them ideal for organic and biodynamic farming methods, which are gaining traction as part of the sustainable agriculture movement. Say goodbye to modern intensive agriculture: No Pesticides, No Glyphosate, No Fertilizers, No Irrigation
- SAY GOODBYE TO WHOLE WHEAT PASTA THAT TASTES LIKE CARDBOARD: Chefs and food enthusiasts have rediscovered the distinctive tastes and aroma of ancient grains. As it simmers, Tumminia Tagliatelle, a type of thick spaghetti, exudes a captivating sweet aroma that fills the air, enticing your senses and transporting you directly into the heart of Italian culinary traditions. Each bite offers an unforgettable experience, calling you back to savor its unique charm again and again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: never heard of this variety before, has this variety been artificially hybridized with chemicals and radiation by man?**
A: NO, This is TRUELY AN ANCIENT WHEAT from Sicily!!

Thanks to the work of the Stazione Sperimentale di Granicoltura per la Sicilia — which started in 1927 — the grani antichi di Sicilia (Sicily’s ancient grains) have been rediscovered and catalogued, and important knowledge about their nutritional value and health properties made public: these cereals yield less than common wheat, but they are more nutritious and much richer from an organoleptic point of view. In other words, they are not as profitable, but they are much better for you. 

Tumminia also called Tumilia is an ancient variety of wheat native to Sicily. It can be traced back to when the ancient Greeks who used to call it trimeniaios and historical sources attest its presence throughout the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. 

Indeed, tumminia was a very popular wheat variety in the region up to the years before the Second World War. This particular ancient variety was no longer cultivated in the 1950’s because (1) It did not meed the minimum yielding standards to be profitably cultivated in mass (2) It is intolerant to pesticides, insecticides and herbicides.

Recent research proved that Tumminia has lower gluten content than common wheat, and that is particularly rich in fibers, vitamins and oligo-elements. A true manna, rich in nutrients and lighter to digest than most other grains. 

The Slow Food Foundation for Biodiversity tells us that tumminia durum wheat is good for both pasta and bread. It is “extremely fragrant and quite nutritious, and, thanks to the use of sourdough as a natural yeast it lasts for a long time.”  

Tumminia is also a product at risk of extinction. This is why it is a Slow Food Presidium, an indication that “sustains quality production at risk of extinction, protects unique regions and ecosystems, recovers traditional processing methods, safeguards native breeds and local plant varieties.”

**Q: Grams fiber and grams carbohydrate per serving?**
A: Fiber 6g/serving (24% DV)
Carb 40g/serving  (13% DV)
Sugars 0g/serving
Protein 7g/serving

**Q: Iron content?**
A: The Iron content is 4% of Daily Value based on a 2000 calorie diet.

**Q: Is this made from 00 flour?**
A: This one is the whole wheat. I have only tried their other version, but unsure if it is 00.  (The 00 flour is much finer I believe as I have used it for light pizza crusts.)  It tastes delicious though and I highly recommend it. If you are familiar with southern Italian pastas you will like it. It is most similar to fusilli from the Naples area.
