Spaghetti was made from semolina, containing 5% to 30% milled flours of green pea, yellow pea, chickpea, and lentil, respectively. Physical‐chemical characteristics and descriptive sensory and consumer acceptance characteristics were measured. Spaghetti containing legume flours darkened the spaghetti (P < 0.05) but did not affect the cooked weight significantly. Cooking loss and firmness increased with an increase in legume flour content. Trypsin inhibitor activity (TIA/g) was significantly reduced after cooking. Descriptive intensity analysis showed that the firmness, pulse flavor, and color intensity of the pasta products increased with the increase in the percentages of legume flour fortification up to 30%, whereas the intensity of the shiny appearance, elasticity, and overall quality decreased. Consumers preferred control spaghetti (without legume additives) more than the spaghetti containing legume flours and they slightly liked the spaghetti with 15% lentil or green pea and the spaghetti with 20% chickpea or yellow pea.
