Hi, since getting diagnosed as type 2, I have been watching my carb intake, so basically cut out pasta( among other things).
I made a slow cooker meatballs in tomato sauce today, and decided we would have some of the dried fusilli that is still in the cupboard.
It comes in a 500g bag and it says it contains 5 portions. so 5 x 100g portions. so far so good.
The nutritional info is per 100g cooked as directed, 100g Dry became approx. 240g when cooked as directed.
Now at last is my question, does it mean 100g before being cooked or after being cooked?
Sorry if this has been covered somewhere else. I did search but couldn't find anything.
