Description

Pasta is one of the basic foods of the ‘Mediterranean Diet’. Every day we should consume fruits, vegetables, dairy products and carbohydrates, which are mainly found in cereals such as rice and grains. Pasta is not only a fast food for students but can be eaten as a main dish, as a side dish to a protein food, or in a cold pasta salad or even in pies.

At this point we need to unravel one of the greatest nutritional myths of recent decades, the one that wants spaghetti to “get fat”. This, of course, is not the case, on the one hand, there are no foods that in themselves lead to obesity, on the other hand because pasta is at the base of the Mediterranean pyramid, which indicates that their moderate consumption not only does not cause problems in health, but in addition is suitable as part of a healthy and balanced diet.

Tips for healthier cooking

1. a) Do not “burn” the pasta with butter. You “load” them for no reason with saturated fats. Prefer to add a little olive oil while it’s hot or if you want butter, then a tablespoon for one package is more than enough (always without “burning”).
2. b) Do not overdo it with the portions, they can be delicious and you want to eat the whole pot, but everything can be good in a right measure. A normal portion of an adult human is 80gr-100gr of uncooked pasta. This amount translates to almost double to triple grams of cooked pasta.
