I made 2 dishes with the corn pasta. One was kind of a Mexican pasta sauce since it's corn spaghetti and all. Tomatillos, corn, part of a can of chili, some black beans, onions, garlic, that sort of thing. It came out really good. I thought I might have overcooked the pasta, but it kept its shape and didn't fall apart. It didn't really taste like corn, but it was really good anyway.
The second round was a basic Italian style sauce. Some garlic, red basil, olive oil, cherry tomatoes and zucchini. This time I tried not to overcook the pasta, but it ended up a little under done. It was probably perfectly al dente, but I guess I like mine a little less to the tooth. Still good, I just let it sit in the sauce for a little while to cook more and soak up the sauce.
All in all, for a gluten free pasta this corn spaghetti comes pretty close to normal. I'll probably get this again, and I really dug the Mexican pasta thing. Mexican Italian fusion cuisine.

hmmm, veddy interesting. i just feel for peeps with all these food sensitivities. i'm glad you found a new GF option.
Cool corn pasta, I'll have to try that as I'm trying to stop eating wheat.
I was trying to be gluten-free for a few days and tried rice pasta. It was yuck - just very gloppy! The corn pasta sounds like the perfect solution, if I ever need to go through all that again.
Just curious how you made out on the Quantum Wellness Cleanse. I did it over the summer as well and am a HUGE fan!
Best wishes to you!
