Khorasan wheat is mostly grown in the Canadian prairies and American midwest these days – meaning it’s grown close to where I grew up in Canada and was easily available years ago in Manitoba. Flourist out of BC used to carry it – it doesn’t look like they are right now – but Bob’s Red Mill does, and you might even be able to find a farmer growing it in your region. If you haven’t tried whole grain pasta before, or you’d like to shift into a healthy pasta variety but want to keep a very similar texture and flavour to white pasta, this is what you need. Kamut pasta is as close as it gets, and so much better than plain old whole wheat. If you have never made pasta before, you might be surprised at just how simple it is. Yes, it takes time, but none of it is overly complicated.
