Perfect pasta enjoyment even without gluten
Authentic al dente enjoyment without gluten - that is our claim. At Byodo, pasta fans with gluten intolerance can also enjoy Italian pasta that tastes confusingly similar to the original. The popular gluten-free lasagne sheets made from 100% organic corn and rice flour will therefore be joined this fall by two new pasta shapes: Casarecce and Sedani. They are in no way inferior to pasta made from durum wheat semolina and can therefore be easily substituted in tried and tested recipes.
