FAQS

Banza is pronounced bahn-zuh. The first syllable “ban” rhymes with “on,” not “an." As in, Banza is what's on your plate...for dinner tonight. Banza is shorthand for "garbanzo pasta."

Ingredients: Chickpeas, Pea Starch, Tapioca, Xanthan Gum.

The serving sizes reflect uncooked pasta. When you cook Banza, it almost doubles in size and weight, taking on the water it’s boiled in. The nutrition information of cooked Banza is the same as that of the dried pasta you measured before cooking.

Of note, some pasta shapes take up more room than others. For example, one cup of Banza Rotini (measured dry) equals about 2.3 oz (dry), whereas one cup of Banza elbows (measured dry) equals about 3.8 oz (dry).

Banza Pasta is a low glycemic index food, with a score of 36 (GI study here). To be considered Low GI, a food must score less than 55. Chickpeas have been shown to maintain blood sugar control, and we've had many people with diabetes note that they feel comfortable eating Banza frequently, as our noodles have 3x the fiber, 2x the protein, and 25% fewer net carbs than traditional pasta. That said, we always recommend checking with your doctor or dietitian if you have any further questions.

Xanthan gum is produced by the fermentation of a sugar (glucose)—much like the way yogurt is made. In our case, it's a non-GMO ingredient that adds volume; it’s in many of your favorite sauces, for instance. Our xanthan gum is derived from corn. There are no corn proteins in xanthan gum, and the ingredient itself is a very small percentage of the product. That said, if you have an allergy to corn, we advise checking with your doctor before eating Banza.

The majority ingredient in our pasta is chickpeas. The sugar in Banza is naturally occurring in the chickpeas - there is no added sugar. In a 2 oz serving, there are 2g of natural sugars.

Banza contains 175mg phosphorus (15% DV) and about 510mg potassium (10% DV) per 2 oz serving.

All of our pasta shapes (Alphabets, Angel Hair, Bowties, Bucatini, Cascatelli, Cavatappi, Elbows, Gemelli, Lasagna, Linguine, Penne, Rigatoni, Rotini, Shells, Spaghetti, Wheels, and Ziti) are certified by Gluten-Free Certification Organization (GFCO), and are produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility.

While our pasta is Non-GMO Project Verified, it's not certified organic. We invest in nutritious, premium ingredients, while staying true to our mission of making nutritious food accessible to more people. We work closely with our suppliers to ensure that their standards are in line with our brand values.

All of our pasta shapes (Alphabets, Angel Hair, Bowties, Bucatini, Cascatelli, Cavatappi, Elbows, Gemelli, Lasagna, Linguine, Penne, Rigatoni, Rotini, Shells, Spaghetti, Wheels, and Ziti) are free of "major food allergens" as defined by the FDA. 

Our mac and cheese products include pre-packaged cheese pouches containing Milk. Of note, the cheese for our mac and cheese is produced and packaged at a separate facility from our pasta. Our pasta facility receives pre-packaged and sealed cheese pouches for insertion into Banza mac and cheese boxes. The cheese is not manufactured or reworked at our pasta manufacturing facility, but simply repacked from case to box. We have a dedicated allergen storage area for cheese pouches and an allergen preventive control plan.

A few tips for best results when cooking Banza:

• •Start tasting the pasta about a minute before the shortest cook time on the box. All stoves are different, so we recommend tasting noodles until they reach your desired texture.
• •When the pasta reaches your preferred texture, strain it, and rinse under water as you strain. Rinsing Banza after cooking removes the chickpea starch that forms during the cooking process.
• •To decrease the foam, fill your pot with more water, turn the burner down to a lower heat, add a splash of olive oil to the water, and/or scrape some foam off the top with a spoon.

A boiling pot of Banza may foam up a bit more than traditional pasta. This same foam occurs when boiling chickpeas themselves (the majority ingredient in Banza is chickpeas!). Some tips to decrease the foam: fill your pot with more water, turn the burner down to a lower heat, add a splash of oil to the water, and/or scrape some foam off the top.

Follow package directions for best results. Cook as you would pasta, and use a fine mesh strainer. For cooking one bag (8 oz) of Banza rice: 

1. 1. In a pot, bring 6 cups of salted water to a rolling boil.
2. 2. Reduce heat to a simmer and add Banza.
3. 3. Cook to desired firmness, stirring occasionally. Approx. 3-4 minutes. Expect some foam.
4. 4. Drain using a fine mesh strainer. Make sure to rinse the rice with water if you are making Chickpea Rice. 
5. 5. If you're making Flavored Rice, next you'll stir in the seasoning packet and 1 tbsp of olive oil or butter (optional). Cover and let sit for 2 minutes to allow flavors to develop. For all other varieties, return to pot, fluff with a fork and enjoy! 

You can enjoy Banza Rice as you would regular rice or grains - as a side, in a burrito bowl, as a paella - you name it! Check out our recipe blog for more inspiration here.

At this time, the product is best prepared according to the instructions on the back of the bag. We do not recommend using a rice cooker to prepare Banza rice.

Unlike our regular rice and other products, we do not recommend rinsing Banza flavored rice varieties after cooking them. The heat from the rice helps the flavors from the seasoning packet develop, and you don’t want to rinse off any of that deliciousness!

Banza rice is a different formulation than our pasta. We created Banza rice varieties to work best in rice dishes, and more closely mimic the texture of your favorite grains.

Flatten and recycle the pizza box. If your pizza has a cardboard round, recycle that too. You can bring the plastic sleeve to store-drop off locations or discard.

You can find Banza pizza in most Whole Foods, Target, and Walmart stores nationwide, in addition to a number of other retailers. Be sure to type your zip code into our Store Locator to confirm which flavors you can snag from your local freezer aisles!

Follow package directions for best results, and please make sure to remove the cardboard round prior to baking. For a perfectly crispy pizza, place directly on the middle oven rack.

Our current cooking instructions are written for a conventional oven at 400°F. For convection baking, reduce the temperature to 375°F and cook time remains the same.

Craving a grilled pizza? Set the heat to medium and let the pizza sit out at room temp for a few minutes. 

For our plain crust, we like to rub each side with a little olive oil (about 1 teaspoon per side) and grill face down. Then flip, add toppings and grill until the crust is lightly charred.

For our topped pizzas, grill covered until the crust is lightly charred and cheese is melted.

We recommend baking our pizza directly on the middle oven rack so air can flow underneath and allow it to get nice and crispy on the bottom! Our dough is not wet and the crust is a nice barrier to keep cheese and toppings from falling off, so it shouldn’t make a mess in your oven. If you prefer to bake on a baking sheet or pizza stone, we recommend placing it in the oven while preheating so it can warm up and ensure the pizza gets crispy on the bottom. 

If you’d like to bake your pizza on a stone, make sure it’s in the oven during preheating so it’s hot when the pizza is added. The pizza might not get as crispy on the stone as it will directly on the rack.
