THE ROMAN LEGIONNAIRE'S ANCIENT GRAIN Before the Green Revolution in the 1950s, Ancient Grains were the staple for bread, pastas, and dough. Back then, gluten sensitivity was practically unheard of.  In 2013, after seeing some of my own family members struggle with gluten intolerance, I decided to resurrect the Ancient Grains consumed by the Roman Legionnaires themselves. Sicily’s elite grain provided vital energy for each Roman legionnaire trained to march 20 miles in 5 hours while carrying 60-100 lbs of gear! To accomplish this, each Roman legionnaire was provided a daily ration of 900 grams of grain (75% of their entire ration) almost this whole bag! **GIFT READY ** Add a Personalized Message in the note section when viewing your cart and your gift will be delivered with a special gift box at no additional cost.

THE ROMAN LEGIONNAIRE'S ANCIENT GRAIN Before the Green Revolution in the 1950s, Ancient Grains were the staple for bread, pastas, and dough. Back then, gluten sensitivity was practically unheard of.  In 2013, after seeing some of my own family members struggle with gluten intolerance, I decided to resurrect the Ancient Grains consumed by the Roman Legionnaires themselves. Sicily’s elite grain provided vital energy for each Roman legionnaire trained to march 20 miles in 5 hours while carrying 60-100 lbs of gear! To accomplish this, each Roman legionnaire was provided a daily ration of 900 grams of grain (75% of their entire ration) almost this whole bag! **GIFT READY ** Add a Personalized Message in the note section when viewing your cart and your gift will be delivered with a special gift box at no additional cost.

THE SAFE CHOICE FOR GLUTEN SENSITIVITIES - Discovered this pasta on Amazon and ordered because of its low gluten rating. I have had to give up pasta due to a gluten allergy(not celiac) and histamine reaction. But I love pasta. So far I have made two amazing meals once week apart with the amazing result of no allergic reaction. I cannot use tomatoes so the delicious olive oil and butter along with garlic and parmesan cheese made me smile all day. Thank you so much for returning to growing this amazing ancient grain despite the fact that it is not a mass produced money maker. It means so much to me and my family. Ciao Ciao!!!

DELICIOUS, NUTRITIOUS, AND GREAT FOR DIABETICS! - I loved this pasta! It was delicious with sautéed zucchini, onions and garlic, topped with olive oil and pecorino romano grating cheese. The texture was a little different the first day because I didn’t cook it long enough ( now I know!) but it was marvelous the second day after putting it aside as left overs.

I LOVE how nutritious it is! Forget gluten free- GO TUMMINIA! It’s like supplements levels of nutrition!

Also it’s true what they say about it not spiking your blood sugar. My friend is diabetic and he wanted to try it so he gave himself a normal dose of insulin that he normally would to enjoy some pasta. However this didn’t spike his blood sugar AT ALL so his blood sugar tanked because it didn’t do what he expected with the dose he took preventatively! No worries he ok😅
And what this means is he has found a pasta that he can eat on a regular basis without the normal dose of insulin required for other pastas! That’s great news for him!!

The staff is friendly and helpful and I recommend this product 💯 ( also they really are in Sicily and I plan on visiting their farm the next time I visit)

FINALLY, A CLEAN PASTA WITH NO HIDDEN NASTIES! - I truly enjoy Papa Vince products. Recently, I ordered and cooked the Busiate Pasta and it was delicious and I love the fact that the pasta is clean and don't have hidden unhealthy ingredients like most pasta. It makes a great Mac-N-Cheese too. I am a life time customer who has decided the Papa Vince pasta will be the only pasta for me.

FAQ - Why Italian Pasta Is a Gluten-Sensitive Paradise

Does Italian pasta have less gluten than American Pasta?

Italian pasta typically contains less gluten than American pasta due to the types of wheat used and the cultivation methods. In Italy, traditional pasta is often made from ancient wheat varieties (like durum wheat, tumminia wheat, and einkorn), which have a different gluten structure compared to modern wheat (like hard red wheat).

Ancient grains contain 40-60 times less gluten than Modern Grains. They also contain the original gluten structure, which is much weaker than the gluten found in modern grains, making it much easier to digest and even supporting anti-inflammatory diets.

Additionally, Italian milling processes often produce flour that retains more of the original grain's nutrients and fiber, contributing to its unique nutritional profile. These factors, along with the use of traditional processing methods like cold-stone grinding, bronze-die cutting, and slow drying, can result in Italian pasta being recognized as easier to digest for some individuals and potentially containing less gluten than American pasta.

Is there less gluten in whole wheat pasta?

Whole wheat pasta is made using the entire wheat kernel, which includes the bran, germ, and endosperm. This integral use of the grain results in pasta that's denser in nutrients, including fiber, vitamins, and minerals, because the bran and germ are rich in these elements.

Refined pasta, on the other hand, is made by removing the germ and bran, focusing solely on the starchy endosperm. This process strips away a significant portion of the grain's nutritional content, yielding a product with a softer texture and a lighter color but fewer health benefits.

However, while whole wheat pasta is richer in nutrients and fiber than refined pasta, it still contains gluten.

Papa Vince’s Pasta is made from ancient grains containing 40-60 times less gluten than Modern Grains. These grains also contain the original gluten structure, which is much weaker than the gluten found in modern grains. This makes the pasta much easier to digest and even supports anti-inflammatory diets.

Can gluten-sensitive people eat pasta in Italy?

Yes, gluten-sensitive individuals can enjoy pasta in Italy, thanks to the country's widespread recognition and accommodation of gluten sensitivity and celiac disease.

Italy is renowned for its culinary inclusivity, offering a broad array of gluten-free options that cater to those with gluten-related disorders. Italian law requires gluten-free food options in schools, hospitals, and public places, and many restaurants across Italy are well-versed in handling gluten-free diets, often providing delicious gluten-free pasta dishes made from alternative grains such as rice, corn, buckwheat, or quinoa.

Moreover, the Italian Celiac Association (AIC) works diligently to increase awareness and improve the availability of gluten-free options. They also certify restaurants that meet strict gluten-free handling standards, making it easier for gluten-sensitive travelers to find safe dining options.

The attention to detail and care in preparation ensures that those who need to avoid gluten can still indulge in Italy's rich pasta culture without concern.

Is pasta in Italy healthier?

The perception that pasta in Italy is healthier than in America stems from the focus on high-quality ingredients, traditional cooking methods, portion control, and cultural practices that prioritize simplicity and balance in Italian cuisine.

Ingredients:
Traditional Italian pasta is typically made from durum wheat semolina and water without additives commonly found in some American brands. This focus on high-quality, minimalistic ingredients contributes to the overall health profile of Italian pasta.

In contrast, some American pasta brands may contain additives and refined flours that reduce the nutritional content of the pasta.

Cooking Methods:
Italians often follow traditional pasta-making methods and prefer homemade cooking. Pasta in Italy is often cooked "al dente," which means it is cooked just enough to retain a firm texture. Overcooked pasta can affect blood sugar levels due to a higher gastric rate, emphasizing the importance of healthier cooking methods.

American pasta dishes may sometimes include larger portions and heavy, rich sauces, leading to higher calorie and fat intake compared to the more moderate and balanced approach in Italian cuisine.

Portion Control:
Italian pasta consumption emphasizes portion control. Italians enjoy their meals slowly and in moderation. This practice contrasts with the American habit of larger servings, which can lead to overeating and potential health issues.

Nutritional Profile:
Italian pasta is often considered healthy due to its nutritional profile and specific culinary traditions. It is made from high-quality ingredients and balanced cooking methods, contributing to its reputation as a healthier option.

While American pasta's nutritional content can vary based on brands and ingredients, the perception that Italian pasta is healthier is often linked to the emphasis on simplicity, quality, and moderation in Italian cuisine.

Why is Italy so gluten-free friendly?

Italy is known for being accommodating to individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance due to several factors that contribute to a gluten-free friendly environment. Here are the key reasons based on provided sources:

Cultural Awareness: Italy has a strong cultural awareness of celiac disease and gluten intolerance. Italian children are routinely screened for celiac disease in schools, and there is widespread understanding of the condition and its dietary requirements among the general population.

Supportive Infrastructure: The Italian Celiac Society (AIC) plays a significant role in promoting gluten-free options and ensuring that restaurants and food establishments meet strict standards for gluten-free preparation. This organization certifies restaurants that adhere to stringent processes to prevent cross-contamination and provide safe gluten-free meals.

Dedicated Gluten-Free Establishments: Italy boasts numerous dedicated gluten-free bakeries, restaurants, and shops scattered across the country. These establishments cater specifically to individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance, offering a wide range of safe and delicious gluten-free options.

Labeling Laws: Italy has stringent food labeling laws that require explicit identification of gluten-free products. This makes it easier for individuals with gluten sensitivities to identify safe food options and confidently navigate the culinary landscape.

Traditional Culinary Practices: Traditional Italian baking practices, such as long fermentation processes like those used in making ancient grains sourdough bread, can influence the gluten structure, potentially making it easier to digest for some individuals with gluten sensitivities. These methods contribute to the overall gluten-free friendly environment in Italy.

In summary, Italy's cultural awareness, supportive infrastructure, dedicated gluten-free establishments, labeling laws, and traditional culinary practices all contribute to making Italy a gluten-free friendly destination where individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance can confidently enjoy authentic Italian cuisine without compromising their dietary needs.

FAQ - Why Ancient Grain Pasta Is Ideal for Managing Blood Sugar

Can Ancient Grains Be a Healthier Option for Gluten Sensitivities?

Absolutely, ancient grains represent a healthier choice for individuals with gluten sensitivities due to their unique gluten structure, which is different from modern wheat. Because of ancient grain’s inherent biodiversity, this particularly distinguishes the genetic spectrum compared to modern wheat, that has been hybridized for very few gluten gene diversity.

This difference results in a less elastic and potentially less inflammatory response, making ancient grains particularly beneficial for those with gluten sensitivities or anyone interested in anti-inflammatory dietary choices.

The distinct gluten composition in ancient grains, such as spelt, farro, and einkorn, may be easier to digest for some people, reducing the risk of discomfort or adverse reactions commonly associated with gluten consumption.
