Bulk Semi-Wholemeal Coquillettes Organic

What does a 250 g bag cover?

About two and a half dry portions, so a meal for two. Kazidomi Vrac sells these semi-wholemeal shells by weight, and the small bag suits a single-person household or a first try, without an opened pack sitting around for months. Allow roughly 100 g of dry pasta per adult serving.

The 250 g bag or the kilo bag: which suits me?

Same pasta, same organic semi-wholemeal durum wheat, two bag sizes. The 250 g bag from Kazidomi Vrac is the one for a trial run or a small household. The kilo bag makes sense for a family that cooks pasta weekly and has an airtight jar to decant it into. Nothing else changes between them.

How do I cook them for children?

Eight minutes in boiling salted water, a litre for every 100 g, then drained and finished with a trickle of olive oil or a knob of butter. The Kazidomi Vrac shells go with a smooth tomato sauce, grated cheese or a blended vegetable purée, and they are small enough to eat with a spoon.

What does semi-wholemeal change?

Semi-wholemeal pasta keeps part of the wheat bran. The Kazidomi Vrac shells are therefore a deeper gold, taste more clearly of cereal and hold a slightly rustic bite. White pasta, milled from refined semolina, comes out paler and more neutral on the palate. Cooking time stays close between the two.

Do they contain egg or additives?

No. The only ingredient is organic semi-wholemeal durum wheat semolina: no egg, no colouring, no preservative. These Kazidomi Vrac shells do contain gluten, since they are made from wheat, so they are not suitable for anyone with coeliac disease. They are milled and shaped in Italy.
