PRESS RELEASE
How do you like your pasta? We say it has to be “al
dente” which means “firm to the bite.” When cooked al dente, pasta is tender
but firm. Nobody wants to have mushy pasta, especially not this National Pasta
Month of October!
This appreciation
month is celebrated in some parts of the world and even in the Philippines to
draw everyone’s attention to everything pasta - a global food consumed in all
five continents. Pasta has
unquestionable merits as it is appropriate for a dynamic and healthy lifestyle,
capable of meeting both primary food requirements while creating a high-level
of gastronomy.
This month, Doña Elena Al Dente invites you to
celebrate by taking your regular pasta dishes to the next level – starting with
the kind of pasta you use!

Doña Elena Al Dente
is the only Artisan Quality Italian Pasta. It is made using high quality, 100%
durum wheat semolina or hard wheat. ONLY pasta made from Durum Wheat can be
considered al dente. Doña Elena Al Dente was made through the artisan way of
making pasta – slow drying process and not subjected to high heat. It uses
special bronze dies which leaves a rough surface that create ridges on the
pasta. These ridges help sauces stick to the pasta better, making every bite
simply delicious. Unlike other pasta with only 6% protein content, Doña Elena
Al Dente has 13% protein, a result of the slow-cooking process which preserves
its nutrients. Doña Elena Al Dente is also GMO-free, 100% certified all
natural.
Now, take a bite

Here’s a tip to all
pasta lovers: Don’t put oil on your pasta when boiling to see the quality of
your pasta. Doña Elena Al Dente does not require oil because it doesn’t stick
together. While oil is needed in most pasta sauces, you don’t need the extra
oil when boiling.
Now, go and be
merry pasta lovers! The next time someone asks you how you like your pasta,
simply say, “Al Dente!”
