Rice Pasta

• Use rice pasta as a base for creamy sauces: Its neutral flavor makes it a perfect canvas for rich and decadent sauces like Alfredo or pesto. The texture complements the creaminess beautifully.
• Toss it in stir-fries: Rice pasta, particularly thinner varieties, works excellently in stir-fries with vegetables, proteins, and Asian-inspired sauces such as soy sauce and ginger.
• Create cold pasta salads: Cook and chill rice pasta for refreshing pasta salads combined with fresh vegetables, herbs, vinaigrette dressings, and proteins like chicken or shrimp.
• Bake it in casseroles: Incorporate cooked rice pasta into baked pasta dishes such as lasagna or macaroni and cheese for a gluten-free version of your favorite comfort food classics.
• Add to soups: Small shapes of rice pasta can be added to clear broths or hearty vegetable soups for added substance and texture.
• Serve as side dish: It can be served as a simple side, seasoned with olive oil, herbs, and spices to complement grilled meats or roasted vegetables.

• May be suitable for gluten-free diets, aiding individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
• Can be a source of carbohydrates for energy, fueling daily activities and exercise.
• Provides a lower glycemic index option compared to some wheat pastas, potentially supporting blood sugar management.
• May contribute to dietary fiber intake, promoting digestive health and regularity.
• Offers a versatile base for incorporating vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy sauces for a balanced meal.

Uncooked rice pasta should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, similar to traditional pasta. An airtight container or the original packaging, tightly sealed, is ideal. Once cooked, rice pasta is best stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consumed within 2-3 days. Due to its texture, cooked rice pasta doesn't freeze well.
