    Would it be possibly to modify this for whole-wheat pasta?

      Hey Johanna,
      I haven’t tried this dish with whole wheat pasta but if you do,let me know the results..
      Ideally the pressure cooking time should be half the time mentioned on the back of the packet minus 1 minute..hope it works for you .
