Garofalo Gluten Free Mafalda Corta Italian Pasta 400 g

I waited until I have used this pasta for over a month before reviewing it as I wanted to try it in several dishes, cooked in different ways. Each and every time I have used it, it has turned out just perfectly, exactly as you would want and hope pasta to taste and look. I have tried many different types of gluten free pasta and I can confidently say that this is easily the best I have tasted. It really does taste like 'real' pasta. I have found that cooking it a little longer than the packet states works best for me but I do prefer my pasta to be on the softer side rather than al dente (sorry, to all of the traditionalists and gourmets out there!) I just add a few extra minutes onto the cooking time and this gives a softer bite without being in the slightest bit mushy. Unlike some other gluten free pastas that can very easily be overcooked and can start to disintegrate, I cannot imagine this ever being a problem with the Garofalo pasta. It keeps its shape well and doesn't lose any of its lovely taste. Overall, if you are searching for a gluten free pasta that gives you all of the taste and texture of typical durum wheat pasta, stop looking. This might just be it!

A regular buy.

Nice gluten free pasta. Unique shape. Great texture! Enjoyed by gluten and non gluten eaters.

I have been involuntarily gluten free for over two decades now and this is the best pasta brand that I have found. Their spaghetti and linguine is excellent and I would highly recommend it to anyone that is suffering the diet. It is more pricey that the supermarket brands but it is worth the money if you like to enjoy the eating experience. The cooking times on the bag seem pretty reliable unlike some other brands and are worth setting your timer to. The Mafalda Corta pasta in particular becomes overcooked very quickly and the frills will fall of while you drain it if you were lackadaisical enough to leave it sat in the pan of hot water off the heat for 30 seconds while you finish grating cheese, so don’t do that.

The best GF pasta I’ve outside of Sainsbury’s! Definitely a treat.

This pasta is gluten free and much nicer than supermarket pasta. I buy several packs at a time when it is on special offer. Cooks quickly.

This is the best gluten free pasta I have found. It tastes delicious and has a lovely texture, the only issue (and it is very minute) is that it can get too soft in a flash and fall apart. So just keep an eye when cooking it - I normally have it a touch al dented and it's just perfect.

Great tasting pasta and cooks well.

Se puede comer, pero esperaba otra cosa, por la marca. Recién hecha tiene un pase, pero como se enfríe ya se pone arenosa-plasticosa como cualquier pasta mala sin gluten. De sabor regular. Hay macarrones marca blanca bastante mejores.
