For most of human history—and prehistory—grains have been the most important source of nutrients and calories to sustain life, and this remains true today in many parts of the world. For example, in parts of Asia, rice is eaten at nearly every meal. In Japan, the standard words for breakfast, lunch, and dinner can be translated as “morning rice,” “noon rice,” and “evening rice.”
In many regions, dried beans, eaten together with rice, are a more common source of protein than meat or fish. Dried legumes are actually matured, dried versions of some fresh vegetables are not immediately thought of as starches. However, they do have a high starch content and, because of their dried nature, are handled much like grains.
Pastas and noodles are important starchy foods made from grains, usually wheat, but also rice and other grains. In this course we look primarily at the noodle products inherited from Italian cuisine, but we also learn about noodles from other cuisines.
