Does all pasta contain gluten?
No. To please all tastes and dietary restrictions, there are numerous varieties of pasta available on the market today. Traditional pasta is typically made from durum semolina wheat or whole wheat. Alternative pastas are made from other grains such as brown rice, KAMUT®, spelt, and quinoa and are now widely available. Some of these alternative options such as KAMUT® and spelt are wheat-based, however gluten-free pasta is also on the market. The primary ingredient in gluten-free pasta is brown or white rice. Other ingredients in gluten-free pasta are quinoa, corn, potato, amaranth and buckwheat.
