Wednesday’s Helping: No Boil Lasagne

A shortcut for you to noodle on
Cooks preparing lasagna with this type of lasagne can skip a step if they use this food item. Forget preparing a large pot of boiling water to cook these noodles. Just pile on the sauces, cheese, and other recipe ingredients and then toss the whole lasagna pie in the oven. These “no boil” lasagne will cook until soft and al dente. The Mixed Stew crew suggests that you generously cover or submerge the entire surface area (including noodle sides and edges) with meat sauce and other ingredients. Any exposed pasta edges or areas that are not thoroughly submerged in cheese or sauces may end up dried out, chewy, or crunchy.

  1. I always wondered if this could be done. I don't like that you have to boil the lasagna noodle, especially because it takes so much water, and it's hard to find the right pot to boil such a big piece of noodle without it curling up. Thanks for sharing.
