Whole wheat pasta with raw sauce is an easy and quick summer pasta: the only thing to cook is the pasta!
The raw sauce is a raw dressing, to be prepared in advance and left to rest in the fridge or last minute and used on the spot.
Cheese, which one to use?
Cheese should be consumed no more than twice a week, in small doses and preferring fresh cheeses like low-fat ricotta.
• cottage cheese, ricotta, cacio ricotta;
• mozzarella, provolone, scamorza in cubes or small pieces;
• Grana Padano or Parmigiano Reggiano in flakes.
I used a primosale cheese.
