whole-grain pasta / Spelt Pasta

Post by Qlike » Tue, 20 Sep 2016 3:40 pm

Hi

I will move to Singapore soon and was wondering whether whole-grain pasta and/or spelt pasta is known in SG and can be bought easily? I did a quick google check and just found some 20S$ offers which would be beyond anything I expected... :???:

Maybe there are other Asian substitutes to whole-grain pasta I am not aware of...

Thank you for the idea, but I am not really interested in upgrading my Service Apartment with some pasta machine [-(

So, is whole-grain pasta a thing in Singapore?

I'm not sure if comparable, but KOKA make some pretty awesome purple grain MSG free instant noodles in aglio olio flavour. They're really cheap and taste surprisingly good.

you get a ton of different pasta types in the organic section, I've seen buckwheat pasta, squid ink pasta, chili pasta and other variants in fair price and in Mustafa and they were not in the 20$ range,
i assume the whole grain pasta might be there too
To get there early is on time and showing up on time is late
