Description

Braids with 100% durum wheat semolina, smoked paprika, water & salt!

Why semolina?
Semolina is made from durum wheat rather than the soft part of the wheat, from which bread flour is made, it is a low-glycemic food that is digested at a slower rate. This contributes significantly to the weight loss effort but also to people who for medical reasons need to control their blood sugar values, such as diabetics. (more in Details).

Benefits of Smoked Paprika
Paprika has carotenoids, such as lutein and zeaxanthin. Just so you know, lutein and zeaxanthin are good for vision, preventing the sun's harmful rays from damaging eye tissue. On the other hand, vitamin A enhances night vision and contributes to healthy cell growth.
It is also a good source of vitamin E, which helps control blood clotting and contributes to the healthy functioning of blood vessels, as it acts as an antioxidant, preventing damage to cellular lipids.
Paprika is also an excellent source of iron, which supports the function of hemoglobin and myoglobin, two proteins charged with transporting and storing the oxygen that tissues need to function.

Why semolina? (Continuity)
In general, semolina is a food that is low in fat and rich in complex carbohydrates and many nutrients, including protein, vitamins E and B, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium and calcium.
Also, semolina is a food that is low in cholesterol and sodium, rich in fiber and contains no harmful trans fatty acids. For these reasons semolina is a healthy food that can be safely incorporated into a well-balanced diet.
More specifically, its high carbohydrate content makes semolina a food that offers a lot of energy. This is especially important for people with intense activity, provided that it should be used in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
Semolina is also particularly beneficial because of the potassium it contains. Potassium helps in the proper functioning of the kidneys and the heart as well as in the smooth functioning of the muscles. The phosphorus contained in semolina helps with metabolism, magnesium to keep our muscles, bones and nervous system healthy, calcium to have strong bones and zinc to strengthen our immune system.
Also, the vitamin E it contains is an important antioxidant that helps prevent various diseases, since it helps fight the harmful effect of free radicals on healthy cells. The B vitamins contained in semolina have been shown to, among many other benefits, help the brain and nervous system to function properly while also helping to prevent birth defects.
Finally, the fiber contained in semolina can reduce the risk of heart disease and diabetes, lower blood cholesterol levels, help control weight, protect against cancer and help the bowel function properly.

Tips

Smoked Paprika braids, with spinach, almond and tahini!

Materials:
1 package PASTABOUKIS Smoked Paprika Braids (500g.)
3 tsp. tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
1 onion
1 clove of garlic
200 gr. fresh spinach
5 tsp. of tahini soup
50 gr. almonds fillets, roasted
2 tsp. of toasted sesame soup
Salt Pepper

Implementation:
Pour the olive oil into a large non-stick pan. Once heated, add the onion, garlic and spinach and saute for 2-3 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper and continue sautéing for 1 more minute.
At the same time, boil PASTABOUKIS pasta (with 100% durum wheat semolina and no flour, smoked paprika) for five (5') minutes in plenty of salted water.
Add ½ cup water from the pot that was cooking the pasta to the pan with the spinach. Let the sauce boil until their liquid evaporates and the spinach softens.

You take the braids directly from the pot, without straining them, and throw them into the pan with the spinach. Add the tahini sauce, mix.
