Pasta

Abstract

This profile deals with the production of pasta in a small factory capable of producing about 150 tonnes per year. The investment cost for this project is about $ 85,000 and 10 people would be employed. Pasta is commonly made by kneading semolina or wheat flour and water. Other substances can be added to modify the pasta. Eggs, gluten and casein are often used to modify the composition of the pasta; spinach, tomatoes and carrots are used to alter the taste.
