F. A. Q.
WHAT IS SAN REMO PASTA MADE FROM?
Our standard Pasta is made from Australian grown Durum Wheat. The wheat is milled into semolina, then mixed with water and extruded into the pasta shapes we know and love, like spaghetti or fettuccine. The pasta is then dried, this lower water activity gives it a naturally longer shelf life to be enjoyed.
All San Remo standard Pasta is produced at our facility in Windsor Gardens, South Australia.
WHAT IS SAN REMO WHOLEMEAL PASTA MADE FROM?
Our Wholemeal Pasta is made from Wholemeal Durum Wheat Semolina. However, it may contain traces of egg from shared equipment.
WHERE CAN I FIND THE PASTA INGREDIENT LISTING?
Each San Remo Pasta is clearly labelled with an ingredient listing on the back of the pack.
WHY IS my PASTA A DIFFERENT COLOUR?
Every effort is made during processing to monitor and maintain a consistent looking San Remo pasta product. The wheat our pasta is made from is a natural raw material, so will always be subject to some seasonal variation.
Due to drought conditions in many Australian wheat growing areas, the wheat harvested during this period has produced flour substantially darker than previous years.
WHY DOES MY GLUTEN FREE BOX NOT HAVE AN INNER PLASTIC BAG?
San Remo is committed to reducing our Carbon Footprint hence why we have removed the plastic inner bag from our Gluten Free packaging.
Please be assured that we do monitor the storage of all our packaging materials to ensure that they are clean, hygienic and suitable for food contact. There is no food poisoning risk associated with food being packaged in cardboard.
