Agrozimi Spelt Hilopites

Traditional Greek hilopites are tasty noodles that look like fettuccine but come from the ancient Greek pasta, láganon. This delicious spelt version is bronze die-cut and made from robust spelt flour and the fresh spring water from the northern Greek village of Arávissos, where Agrozimi has been based for three generations.

Spelt (triticum spelta or dinkel) has a full flavor with nutty notes and a rough texture that holds sauce beautifully.

Spelt is also an excellent source of iron, magnesium, zinc, vitamins B1 and B2, and beneficial fatty acids.
