Observations

Can I store spirulina pasta with shrimp and lemon?

We recommend that you consume it immediately to maintain its freshness and typical color. However, you can consume it in the refrigerator maximum 24 in an airtight container.

What kind of pasta can I use if I cannot find spirulina pasta?

If you cannot find spirulina pasta, you can use any type of pasta, such as spaghetti, linguine or egg noodles, to adapt the recipe to your taste.

Can I use frozen shrimp instead of fresh shrimp?

Yes, you can use frozen shrimp, but be sure to thaw them well and remove any excess moisture before cooking them.

Can I substitute white wine for another ingredient?

If for religious reasons or an alcohol-free diet you prefer to avoid white wine, you can simply omit it. In this case, the pasta will be a little drier, so we recommend that you save some of the cooking water to toss it in the pan once drained, thus maintaining the right creaminess.

Spirulina is rich in protein, iron, calcium, B vitamins, and antioxidants, helping to improve energy, digestion, and cardiovascular well-being.
