What You Should Know

You'd spot this organic orzo tucked on the pasta aisle at Whole Foods or stacked in your pantry when planning simple weeknight dinners — it gives a wholesome, pantry-staple vibe with a touch of nostalgic comfort. Made from a single ingredient and offering a firm, al dente texture after cooking, its processing (milling, extrusion and drying) points to basic industrial processing rather than ultra-processing.
