Pasta, plain (not stuffed) A007E Generic term * Composite food simple **

The group includes any type of plain pasta (i.e. not stuffed). By default it is not defined if the food items belonging to this group are cooked or not; therefore in case of cooked products (e.g. boiled pasta), the cooking method should be reported with additional facet descriptors. The part consumed/analysed is by default the whole or a portion of it representing the observed heterogeneity.

Generic term (Level of detail)

A term that fixes a food's general nature but not its specific source. To be used only as a base term in a FoodEx2 code if no more specific term is available. ↩

Composite food simple (Type of Term)

A food made by combining ingredients of different natures — a recipe — such as a sauce or a flavoured yogurt. ↩

Implicit facet descriptors *

Descriptors marked are not part of "Reporting hierarchy" and open in their own default hierarchy.

Facet descriptor

Implicit facet descriptors are characteristics a food already implies, so they are left out of its FoodEx2 code. For example, "smoked salmon" (A02KF) implies the facet descriptor "smoking" (F28.A07JV); because the term itself already conveys it, it is not added to the code. ↩
