Nuh'un Ankara Bucati is sold in Turkey as fırın makarna, meaning pasta for the oven. It is made from one ingredient only, durum wheat semolina, and the manufacturer gives a cooking time of 7 to 9 minutes in boiling water. The pack holds 500 g.
Baked pasta is a family favourite in Turkish homes. Boil the pasta until just firm, since it will keep cooking in the oven, then mix it with a tomato sauce and minced meat, or with a creamy béchamel and grated cheese. Spread it in a baking dish, top with more cheese and bake until golden. It also suits simple weeknight meals with a butter and tomato sauce.
The pasta contains wheat. Keep the pack in a dry, cool, odourless place away from sunlight; the manufacturer states a shelf life of 2 years from the production date. Close the bag tightly after opening.
