Generally noodles are considered as fast food and also unhealthy. But food experts say noodles can be made with healthy inputs and it can bring health and happiness they say.
It`s time we start switching to healthier products that are made out of healthier ingredients — in turn contributing to better health and nutrition. For instance, instant and maida noodles can be replaced with spaghetti, a noodle made of durum wheat semolina (sooji), which means it has higher protein content and offers better nutrition and health in every serve.
Belonging to the Mediterranean lands, which are known to be resource hubs for the healthiest food items — olive oil, wine, pasta and the like, spaghetti in no measure misses the marks of good health.
It has about 35 per cent more protein than instant noodles and contains no trans-fats and cholesterol. So, you can binge on as much noodles as you want without worrying about the increase in weight/fat intake.
Spaghetti, as a noodle, offers the ideal experience not just because of its better nutritional content but also due to its smooth texture.
Spaghetti is made up of only durum wheat semolina which is mixed with fresh water and then dried to give noodle shape, which means it undergoes no refining process and has no addition of additives/preservatives imparting it a smooth texture.
Also, the noodle needs no addition of oil at the time of boiling as it does not stick, which, in turn, reduces the overall fat content of a dish made with spaghetti. It is an ideal noodle for preparing any recipe — whether as Chinese hakka, or with tomato sauce and veggies.
Fibre and protein are a must for everyone in day-to-day life. Struggling to feed their children nutritious and healthy food which is rich in fibre and protein is the daily story of every mother.
This is what makes spaghetti every mother`s delight: it is time they serve the delicious noodles with all the vegetable their kids refuse to eat without worrying about their health and wellness.
