Bertolli FROZEN Pasta Sides Tortellini & Ravioli - WHAT ARE WE EATING??

[@dylanwade2020]

Pasta stuffed with cheese is My kryptonite. I could be on a sinking ship and if I had a plate of cheese filled manicotti, well I guess you'd see me at the bottom of the ocean

[@FoulOwl2112]

I'm eating Cheese Manicotti righht now.! God is Great...

[@doltsbane]

Yum, xanthan gum, locust bean gum, and guar gum. Just like Nonna used to make.

[@markiangooley]

Hey, xanthan gum was discovered by a woman. Maybe she was someone’s Nonna? Maybe she wasn’t. Actually, xanthan gum was a team effort too, though she was an important part of the team.

I really like the full sized frozen bag Bertolli with sausage and roasted peppers. I also think the sauce tends to be watery. The sauce comes in numerous rectangles, and I just started taking them out 2 at a time until I reached the consistency I like. The extra sauce rectangles go in the freezer for when I want an individual serving of spaghetti.

[@williamharris8367]

@@LauraNickolai-yb8id My solution is just to cook it a bit longer to boil off the liquid, otherwise I agree that it is too watery.

[@thelegion_within]

oh yeah those are great. the numbers on that first bag meant, to me, that it was going to taste good.

[@williamharris8367]

Bertolli also makes this pasta with Italian sausage dish. It is not cheap, but it is just delicious -- some of the very best frozen pasta I have enjoyed.

As a long time watcher, and also a person with their own microwave meal troubles, most time instructions are designed for the most powerful I believe 1200 wat microwave, if someone has a 750 watt the times need to be extended proportionally.

[@jonpulicicchio5000]

Thanks for checking these out. May try them.

[@dennisvandermarkt8263]

I'd try them once. Thanks Larry

[@gshaunsweeney]

Al dente is pasta cooked but firm. The more you cook pasta and the softer it gets the farther away from al dente it gets.

[@fitfogey]

Thank you. Dude has been wrong about al dente for many videos now.

[@PJ_White]

Right, it literally means “to the tooth”. You get a slight chew on Al Dente pasta.

[@naytewilson]

Everyone knows that.

[@gshaunsweeney]

@@naytewilson Apparently not TheWolfePit that's why he's being corrected.

[@fitfogey]

@@naytewilson Almost everyone. If you would have watched the video you would have known that he didn’t know that.

[@Jnadki]

Bertolli hasn't made its corporate mind on what the four cheeses are in its Four Cheese Ravioli in Marinara Sauce. The call-out on the package lists Romano, Ricotta, Parmesan, and Mozzarella, but the ingredient list says Romano, Ricotta, Parmesan, and Asiago (which I think is a better choice).

[@TheWolfePit]

That is a good catch!

[@michellelogreco3351]

I love your channel! I eat zero premade food. I still love your channel ❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻I love it when you cook from scratch!!!!!!

Larry, they both look good, add shrimp to the 1st one, meatballs to the 2nd, 3rd one add chicken

Their frozen pasta meals are actually pretty good.

[@joeseeking3572]

One of the few frozen items I still buy: Bertolli bag meals (most are pasta but not all). Almost all varieties are good to excellent, though I doctor most of them up with either additional sauce, mushrooms, frozen peas, bacon, etc. - depending on the meal. I think when you do them on the stovetop you have a better shot at controlling sauce consistency by reducing it if necessary. These have, however, become pretty darn expensive around me - I only buy them on good sale - 4 bags at a time :)

[@nolancho]

Don't care what you like! 😊

[@LandRunProductions]

@@nolancho Having a rough time?

[@sinisterisrandom8537]

Bertolli knows how to make some great food, we tend to eat their Chicken Spinach Alfredo.

[@watermanone7567]

Wish you had tried to cook it a little longer to see if it would be more tender. Great video, thanks

[@jhill4874]

I know you are all about following the instructions, but I would have liked to see you add a couple of minutes cooking time after your initial taste test. Just to see if that made a difference.

[@Nickie102]

If cooked a bit longer the sauce should start to thicken up. I find the directions to be more of a general guide rather than best results.

[@michellelogreco3351]

[@greenbroccolistudios1275]

[@jdods8398]

Bertolli Manicotti Alla Vodka Was THE BEST TASTING frozen meal I have ever eaten!!! It hurt my heart when they quit making it.

[@Barbarra63297]

Marinara sauce is supposed to be thin but with good flavor. The Tortellini looked good!

[@bensoncheung2801]

Yum.

[@jasonpope1265]

Thanks for the video. I actually almost bought the ravioli at Kroger today but wasnt sure it was good

[@MichaelR58]

Good review, thanks for sharing, YAH bless !

[@MindsMouth]

He calls it rich, and the sauce is dripping like water. LMAO

[@AKayfabe]

he’s talking about the flavor not the consistency

[@davidhartz5301]

Wait--the pasta (ravioli) was too firm, but you wanted it "more al dente"?

[@fitfogey]

He doesn’t get it. Dude has butchered that part of the videos for a while now.

[@renegadetwinkie3832]

Yum!

[@noahboat580]

You know ive been eating plenty of frozen tortellini, specifically from a local company and a bigger one called Renas. Both are solid but the renas has some sort of tortellini with prosciutto in it- my goodness.

[@FooglerDoodgler]

Frozen tortellini is actually super common in restaurants and usually isn't horrible

[@paulbegley1464]

I have had petty good luck with this product. I like them . And remember fat means flavor

[@markiangooley]

First you make pasta from hard wheat. Then you cook it. Then you freeze it. Then you reheat the frozen version. Such a lot of work! The customer has to do only the last, of course. That’s a LOT of processing.

[@twocvbloke]

Chewing on a pencil eraser, yep, did that many times in school, undiagnosed autism and ADHD played havoc on my stationery, pens, pencils and other things I ended up chewing on through mental boredom... :P

[@FormerRuling]

The macros on the tort are insane. Lol

[@Jake-0]

YEWWWWW DOGGIE

[@jasondouglas152]

The pasta was firm because you didn't cook it straight through the recommended amount of time. When you take it out a minute early then cook in 30 second windows , it doesn't cook the same

[@jimmyjohn2815]

I miss these kind of foods with Maximum Carbs in Horror films I used to watch and eat as a lost Zombie. I'm glad I am eating Healthier these days. I feel better too. Enjoyed the Fantasy Dream false taste of these manipulated artificial food products and that's all ! Love the channel in my fantasy of what fake so called food used to feel to me and then I woke up !

[@MrDmbright65]

If the pasta is that overly firm when cooking in that much liquid it's definitely undercooked. You also really need to read the instructions more carefully....see where it says "adjust cooking times as needed"? Cook times are based on an 1100 watt oven. If your microwave is lower power you need to increase cook time which will also help thicken the sauce. PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! The cooking times are there as a guide ONLY. You adjust AS NEEDED. Even if your microwave is 1100 watts the cook time may still need to be increased depending on age and efficiency of the microwave. You've made this mistake MANY times in your videos. The ravioli dishes most likely needed 5 to 5 1/2 minutes in your microwave. No matter what the package says, you cook till done, otherwise it's not an accurate review.

[@PUTDEVICE]

many ingredients that wouldn't be needed if they made it the right way. here is a normal table of contents. Filling: Ricotta Cheese (Whey, Protein, Salt, Vinegar), Parmiggiano Reggiano Cheese (Part Skimmed Cow's Milk, Salt, Rennet), Mozzarella Cheese (Pasteurized Cows Milk, Cheese Culture, Salt, Enzymes), Breadcrumbs (Wheat Flour), Potato Flakes, Cheese Flavor (Whey, Cheese [Granular & Cheddar {pasteurized Milk, Cheese Culture, Salt, Enzymes}], Buttermilk Solids, Whey Protein Concentrate, Salt), Salt, Corn Starch. Pasta: Wheat Flour, Water, Eggs, Beta-carotene.
