Dried Pastas
Like rice, dried pastas are a staple and resist spoiling for many years. Pasta is also filling and affordable, so you can buy several boxes of it in various shapes, sizes, and ingredients. You can find quick cooking macaroni, spaghetti, tortellini, orzo, couscous, and much more to help fill the pantry. Don’t forget Asian noodles either! You can find dried soba (made from buckwheat), udon and ramen noodles in the ethnic aisle of the supermarket. Bean curd and rice noodles are excellent for soups and stir-fry.
