Multigrain pasta: nutrition per 100 g and example portion
Reference preparation: boiled without salt; wheat, rye and barley pasta. The exact source name is “Pasta, multigrain, boiled without salt” (Fineli food 30361). Available carbohydrate excludes fiber and is not the same measure as US Total Carbohydrate.
Values are rounded after scaling. A small reported amount may round below 0.1 g; a missing value is marked Not available rather than treated as zero. This selected extract does not include sugar, sodium or micronutrient amounts; the full Fineli database contains information beyond these tables.

How to weigh multigrain pasta
These are cooked multigrain pasta values, not a claim about every whole-wheat pasta brand. The source mixture contains wheat, rye and barley. Use a cooked weight with this entry, or a dry package weight with the label, without switching between them.
Calculate your own multigrain pasta portion
For the 180 g example, multiply the source amounts by 180 ÷ 100 = 1.8. The unrounded energy calculation is 108.2 × 1.8 = 194.76 kcal, displayed as approximately 195 kcal. Use the same factor for protein, available carbohydrate, fat and fiber.
For another amount, replace 180 with your own edible weight. Keep the preparation as boiled without salt; wheat, rye and barley pasta; if your food is prepared differently, choose a matching reference or calculate its recipe instead.
How preparation changes the estimate
Draining time and pasta shape affect water retention. Pesto, cream, cheese and oil belong in the total dish. A wholegrain claim does not make the finished pasta meal identical to plain cooked pasta.

The following are separate reference foods, shown per 100 g for orientation. Check the preparation column: dry, raw and cooked values are not interchangeable, and equal gram weights are not necessarily equivalent portions.
