So, I started a gluten-free diet about two months ago. I have baked gluten-free bread, but other than that, haven't really tried to replace other wheat products. This was my first try of a gluten-free pasta. I've had quinoa before and really liked it so it seemed like a good bet.
Even so, I wasn't expecting a miracle. Even as it cooked and I was tasting for doneness, I was noticing grainy textures that weren't that great. But I kept tasting, and right around the suggested cook time, it smoothed out. I drained immediately and dressed with a really light sauce. There is no noticeable "off" flavor to the pasta and it has a great "al dente" texture. I am confident I could serve this to someone who didn't know it was regular pasta and they'd never think anything of it.

I agree with the last reviewer that quinoa pasta must be watched and doesn't store well. It loses structural integrity rather quickly, so add a splash of olive oil to boiling water before adding the pasta, and then stir frequently--the trick is not to let it stick together or it will form a big mass of glue. It's not great for soups and stews because if overcooked, it begins to dissolve. However, in light of all that, I really, really like all the Ancient Harvest quinoa pastas. They are far tastier and have a more pleasing texture than any rice-based pasta.

It tastes pretty good with lots of sauce - but you have to keep an eye on it when cooking so it doesn't break apart, the elbows don't hold its shape. Also, if you stir in sauce too much, it will definitely break and it doesn't store well in the fridge because when you reheat it, it'll break some more. Otherwise, it's a good alternative to wheat/gluten.

great gluten free pasta
No one would ever know these are gluten free or quinoa and corn. I've been able to make ziti with them and many other pasta dishes, baked or not, with great success.
