The Tastiest and Easiest Lasagna Is Made From Pasta Without Boiling.
It’s easy to get carried away with all that sauce, meat, and cheese when making lasagna, but the noodles you pick for flaking are just as important, and the variety without boiling is actually the tastiest.
To determine which pasta is best for this legendary dish, Epicurious used fresh, dried and no-boiled noodles in different batches of lasagna. Not only were boiled without boiling tastier, they were also the most convenient:
They were thinner than dried ones and absorbed the sauce well without getting wet. Bonus: no need to wait for the pasta water to boil or fish out the noodles before they turn into a lumpy mass is a huge relief.
Now that you’ve got your pasta taken care of, you can focus on the gravy and cheese (which, let’s be honest, is the fun part), and Epicurious just casually gives you some tasty advice in those directions. (Click the link below to see them.)
