I received this Barilla Chickpea Pasta as a free trial. I love pasta and am even picky about it sometimes. The only qualm I had was that chickpeas in general are pasty and I worried that if I cooked it up, it would pall apart or be pasty. It looked and smelled great upon opening the box. My family does not like peppers so I made the pasta with a red alfredo and broccoli. The pasta cooked up beautifully. It did not separate or get mushy-in fact I had to cook it a little longer to get it to the texture we like. We like softer al dente and I cooked it about 12 minutes. I was SO impressed with the texture as I tested it. It was perfect. AL dente that was easy to eat but gave you something to really sink your teeth into. The starch off the pasta held the sauce beautifully. It didn't sink to the bottom. It clung to the pasta. The taste was a lot like whole wheat, which was great because that's what I let my daughter think it was !!!! She loved it too. I am so impressed with the look, taste, texture and quality of this pasta. It is amazing and something I would expect from Barilla. I'm embarrassed to say that we were so hungry I forgot to take pictures! But we loved it!
New info: I have had 3 people report back to ma on their chickpea pasta and every one of them is very favorable, reiterating many of the likes I had about it. Nothing but positive reviews!! I received this product for free in exchange for my honest opinion.
