What is Gluten-Free Pasta

Gluten-free pasta is a type of pasta that is made without wheat flour or any other gluten-containing grains. Instead, it is typically made from alternative flour such as rice flour, corn flour, quinoa flour, or chickpea flour. Gluten-free pasta has become increasingly popular in recent years due to increased awareness of gluten intolerance and celiac disease. While gluten-free pasta may have a slightly different texture and taste than regular pasta, it is still a delicious and healthy option for those who need or choose to avoid gluten.
