Ancient Grains Macaroni
General WholefoodsGeneral Wholefoods

Ancient Grains Macaroni

Creamy and subtle, made from Khorasan, a wheat so old it comes with its own legend about a smuggled Egyptian tomb kernel. It's a grain most of the country's never heard of, let alone cooked with.

Made from stoneground Khorasan wheat, long-fermented before it's slow air-dried, so the buttery, mellow character of the grain comes through rather than getting stripped out. More protein and fibre than standard macaroni, and made right here in Brookvale on Sydney's Northern Beaches, mixed, fermented and dried locally, not brought in from overseas.

Taste & texture

  • Rich, buttery flavour with a subtle sweetness — more mellow than the other shapes in the range, less assertive than the spelt
  • Silky, slightly creamy mouthfeel that pairs especially well with cheese sauces and simple butter-based dishes
  • Firm tube holds its bite without going gluggy, even in a rich, creamy sauce
  • Cooks up a warm golden colour, deeper than standard durum macaroni
  • Sits lighter — long fermentation breaks down gluten before it hits your gut

Producer Profile

General Wholefoods

We make the only long-fermented pasta in Australia, grown from grain most of the country stopped choosing. Better food, the way it was always meant to be.. and pasta's just the beginning.Easy Digestion

Long fermentation breaks down gluten before it ever reaches your gut, so this pasta sits way lighter than what you're used to.

More Nutrients

Up to double the protein and fibre of standard pasta, with higher levels of vitamins and minerals from the ancient and whole grains, so you have real nutrition in every bowl.

Slow Dried

Most pasta is blasted with high heat to dry fast, in the process destroying a lot of its nutritional value. We air-dry ours slowly over 20+ hours instead, so what fermentation unlocks stays intact.

Less Bloating

FODMAPs are what causes bloating and gut discomfort for a lot of people. Our fermentation process reduces them by 90%.
