Recently I joined a campaign on BzzAgent to try Buitoni pasta. As you can see by the title of this review, I decided to try the Shrimp Scampi Ravioli. The name itself is impressive, so I had high hopes for this pasta. I am also a huge fan of shrimp scampi, so I was excited to try this pasta. The price was 4.99 for just enough pasta for two people. All in all, that is a great price considering the value of the product. When my husband and I tasted it we were very impressed.
The pasta cooked to a perfect al dente in just 5 minutes and none of the ravioli burst open or leaked into the water. The texture was firm and had that fresh pasta taste. The filling had a light lemon taste with fresh seafood and Italian cheeses. It was delectable and I enjoyed every bite. I prepared the pasta with a light pasta sauce that I made myself from canned tomatoes and a garlic and basil. I think it was the perfect compliment to this dish since it allowed the subtle tasting seafood to shine thru. I would definitely buy this again as a special meal - it beats going out to a restaurant and paying far more for the same product. This product was fresh and homemade tasting and was a very elegant dinner for the two of us.
My delicious BUITONI® Riserva Shrimp Scampi Ravioli! I received the product from BzzAgent to try for free but the excitement is all my own!
