We just got a mail! We got pasta from the pasta evangelist. Should we open it together? Yes! So I ordered this and I got nothing exceptional if you're Italian. And guys, as you can imagine, this video is not sponsored and I paid for this pasta. But what you can do for free is like and subscribe so maybe one day I can get monetized and actually please cover the costs for this video. Thank you, thank you! It really means the world to me. Hi guys! It's your curious and a good friend Vasy. Welcome or welcome back to my channel. I'm very happy and grateful to have you here. On today's video we'll be reviewing pasta and evangelist as someone that used to live in Italy. And lives with an Italian we eat pasta, flat open in this house for five times a week. So yeah, I feel like we know something about pasta. How does pasta evangelist work? Every week there are 10 seasonal recipes from which you can choose from and you should at least order two dishes and let me show you what we got. I couldn't wait so we actually opened this one. I was way too curious. I'm sorry. Once you open your box, inside you can find two booklets. One of them is the general one of pasta evangelists. We're basically they explain to you how does it work and they give you more information about the products and how are they selected, which I think it's what handy so you know what you're buying into. Plus, actually the company has a super nice mission and they're donating money and they're trying to be sustainable and we love that. This is the first booklet, pretty photos and we like it. Do we? Yes we do. The menu with the recipes for this week and it's actually called Citimana Bianca week which literally means white week and as you can see there's like this pretty photo of the mountains. Inside you can find all the pasta dishes that they offer for this week, together with the way in which you should prepare it. You can also find all the information online. Oh and there is also exclusive offers from our partners. We actually got two types of pasta both are single portions and I chose one of them and Ben chose the other one for himself so we will also show you how to prepare both of them and we will also do a little taste test in the end and have the final review is this pasta worth it, is it good, is it not and let's see. The first pasta which I got for myself are this orequette and a little fun fact for you. Do you guys know what orequette means in Italian? It means small years. Which are typical for the region of Puglia which is in the south and I have a friend from there. Childeleta. So I hope she approved this one. The recipe was gluten free and vegan so usually orequette are made with flour but here I can see that they used rice flour. It's a kiopesto. It's actually incredible. Especially if you compare it to the pasta look generous portion. I have to say every dish comes of course I mean with the pasta then a sauce which in my case is the pesto and also an extra topping which for me are some more statues. If you enjoyed this video and you want to see more fun and informative videos from London and around the world hopefully don't forget to subscribe. The second pasta which Ben got comes into this small box. I say it's small because compared to the other pasta it's definitely less especially if you compare it with the sauce but hopefully it's good. We got the Duiia lemon and mascarpone filled pasta. Let's open it. And this is actually not a very traditional recipe because it has Duiia which is from the south from the region of Calabria but inside there is also mascarpone which comes from Lombardis so I would say this is more of a mix. Let's have a little close up. After you order it online on their website you can also choose a next day delivery or schedule a delivery for a specific day and I have to say I didn't have absolutely any issues with this delivery which is quite very recently to be honest. This box is so thin that it can go inside your letter box so in case you're not there you won't have any issues with receiving your pasta box. As I showed you absolutely everything that you need is inside and the promise that it will take you only 5 minutes for you to cook it but we have to see if this is really true. What do you think? This is a subscription box you can choose how often would you like your pasta to be delivered to your home. It goes from live weekly to twice a week or three weeks and of course you can cancel it any time. Here we are ready to start and here is one of the recipes, the one which Ben chose and for both of them it actually says that they need to boil for 3 minutes and the meal should be ready in 5 and I guess they don't consider the boiling time of the water which I know it makes sense but if you have exactly 5 to 10 minutes just keep in mind that you might not be able to do the dishes. It didn't really realize that I'm filming myself while I was filming on the phone which was quite fun and once in a while don't forget to mix your pasta so it doesn't stick to the pan. I drained the third line from the water and added them directly into the pan with butter and sage and for my orequette I just needed to mix them with the pasta and they were ready to eat. This is time my favorite time. Hi everybody, sorry I was a bit busy. Tell us what did you order. So I ordered this and I got this. I mean I got you know there is some stuff you know I feel like for the price though you know they couldn't buy that a bit more things. And guys let me know are you enjoying this pasta review and do you want to see more food reviews on this channel? Drop a comment down below. Quite a lot of pistacchio and I have to say mine is quite the general portion. Mine is not as general. Bence is not as big. Cause I was expecting to have this stuff all over. Like it? I have to say I like mine as well. There is a lot of pistacchio and a lot of pesto and it's very rich and for a gluten free version this is amazing. Mine is nice as well. I like it. I like it. I wish I could taste the new yeah a bit more. And that's how it will be of course. How is this pasta compared to the ones that you used in Italy? It's similar to be fair you know. There is a lot of difference but maybe just like with the, I feel it's a bit too buttery. Yeah I think I would say more toppings less butter. I just like this sweet. Because I'm a pescaterian I'm not actually going to buy pants one but that's totally fine. It's a bit too crunchy for me and the avocado is too small. I think for 7 pounds it's good and they kind of nailed the sauce itself. 7 pound would be nice to be honest. It's a bit like a spank. Review time! How would you rate it out of 10? As of 10 I think it's between a 9 and 8. More towards 8 now cause we finished and I'm a bit hungry. A bit more of like toppings, bit more of pasta and a nice way. But for me I would also give it an 8 overall. So in terms of the taste yeah between 7 and a 8 it was good but it wasn't like something exceptional. What really works is how efficient was it. You receive it the next day and it comes with all the instructions. The photos are super beautiful to look at. So overall I think it's easy. I thought what you were eating. You look at the photo you made. No also the pasta it's good. Overall I think it's an enjoyable experience ordering. I think it's between the restaurant and the super market. It's not pretty good to be honest. So like it's kind of getting towards the normal. It's never going to get you know like a nice you know with the finishing touches. It's not. But yeah it's nothing exceptional if you're Italian. That's an effect. Oh and don't forget to subscribe. Don't you all. Bye!
