In general, for the cooked pasta, despite the objective differences
among all of the experimental and commercial pasta samples
(Fig. 1), the sensorial perception showed no substantial
differences between the semi-wholemeal PDW and YPW pasta
and the commercial wholemeal pasta. However, superior quality
was recognised for the commercial pasta made from semolina,
both for the fresh pasta and the dried pasta. Interestingly, although
made from semi-wholemeal, the colour of the fresh pasta of PDW
and YDW promoted positive evaluations, which were similar to
that of the commercial durum wheat pasta from semolina
