It holds its shape in the sauce without turning mushy, which I really appreciate for a gluten-free option. It's not quite as chewy as regular wheat pasta, but honestly close enough for a weeknight dinner with chicken and marinara.

The texture is decent for gluten-free pasta and it holds up well with a chunky sauce, but the flavor is pretty flat on its own. I found the al dente cook time tricky to nail, my first batch turned out a bit mushier than I'd like. Fine for a quick weeknight meal when you need the convenience, though
