Wusthof Roasted Five-Veg Pasta
We love simple and healthy here at BOSH! HQ, and this Roasted Five-Veg Pasta certainly does the job.
The key to achieving the perfect sliced and diced veggies is to use a sharp high-quality knife, and for us, it just has to be the WÜSTHOF Chef’s Knife. We bought ours years ago and use them every single day.
