| Gluten free pasta in the pasta section |
Edmonton's Italian Centre Shop got its start when Frank Spinelli started selling Italian magazines out of a tiny store in 1959. Since then, the shop has steadily grown – first offering other Italian goods and then an expanding range of imported European products. Now, as a part of the Italian Centre's vast inventory of imported products and local items crafted in the European tradition, customers can find a growing selection of gluten-free products.
One of the store's widest varieties of gluten-free items is found in the pasta section. There are a number of gluten-free brands and varieties of the quintessential Italian staple – grouped together and clearly marked.
The Le Veneziane brand, imported from Italy, produces pasta using only corn flour and offers spaghetti, tagliatelle nests, penne, eliche (similar to rigatoni), fettuccine and small pastas for soups.
Farabella from Fara San Martino in Abruzzo, Italy makes pastas from corn and rice flour and their varieties include tagliatelle nests, lasagna and a variety of short pastas. They also produce a potato gnocchi made with rice flour.
Edmonton's Prairie Harvest import organic brown and white rice pasta from the San Zenone region of Italy. Tinkyada. In eastern Canada, Praire Harvest has a dedicated brown rice facility where they manufacture pasta in a variety of shapes also offered at the Italian Centre Shop.
