Hi, No interest in polenta, otherwise known in the South as cornmeal mush. (smile) I am really interested in the pasta. Happy to know gemelli is included. I'll be looking for them. Thanks.

The pollenta we bought isn't microwavable, however, there are three types of pasta you can microwave. Rotini, elb ow mac, and/r gemmelly. Gimelly is like a twisty pasta. You only microwave them for one minute. Hope this helps. Sorry for the misinformation.
