In the U.S., spelt used to be grown by the hundreds of thousands of acres. Eventually, increased mechanization made it an impractical crop, and gradually it was replaced by its less desirable, but more economically produced cousin, wheat. Now spelt is making a big comeback in the United States. It has a rich, nutty flavor and a smoother texture, containing a "balanced" protein made up of all eight of the essential amino acids your body requires. Finally, Vita-Spelt products are more easily digested than wheat and most other grains, and consequently place less stress on the body. In fact, the Vita-Spelt whole grain and white Spelt pasta line includes spaghetti, elbows, angel hair, rotini, and lasagne, among others.

Mild flavored whole grain pasta with smooth texture
This is one of my favorite 100% whole grain pastas because it is a very good texture, not grainy at all, and the flavor is mild enough to stand up to lighter sauces. It cooks up quickly. It's a good introductory whole grain pasta. I wouldn't use it where I want a really robust whole wheat flavor, but that's not usually what I want from angel hair in any case.

Pretty good but
This product is much better than any regular or whole wheat pasta, but as a personal preference I'd go with the regular whole grain pasta from Vitaspelt. The angel hair is just too fine to cook properly and often comes out mushy and stuck together. The regular also has a better taste as well as texture.

Try organic spelt pasta
Tastes great. Healthier choice due to being organic and higher fiber content. Great texture if you do not over cook.

Better than I had hoped for
There's just no doubt about it, spelt products are delicious, and some are much tastier than whole wheat.Such is the case with this Spelt Pasta. All who try it are of the same opinion; it tastes better than whole wheat.

It is great for whole grain pasta!
This is a quick cooking whole grain, tender pasta that I recommend you try! It is not starchy nor "woody" in flavor.
