Kai: That’s great to hear! The crunch on top is one of my favorite parts. But, as you said, covering while baking is a good idea to prevent it.

I made it this weekend and it turned out FABULOUSLY. I didn’t pre-cook my noodles either and it turned out fine, though the top noodles were a bit too crunchy for my taste, though I think it was more because I forgot to cover my pan with foil during baking. I will definitely be making this again. Thanks so much for the link!!!

mom: We’ll have to try this sometime …

Kai: I hope you gave it a shot! If so, let us know how it went.

Gretchen: By hand! Wow. I think that would definitely work, but you’ll probably want to pre-cook the pasta sheets. Welcome to the wonderful world of food blogs, by the way …

Robin: Are you thinking of doing a KitchenAid attachment? If I had it to do over again, I think that’s the route I’d take. It looks so effortless. And, yes! I started my job last Monday. Lots of training and settling in so far, but this coming week should be more normal, which I’m looking forward to. Thanks for asking!

Sara: Why, thank you!

Michael: Thanks! My sheets were so thin that I don’t think they needed to be pre-cooked (and I’m not sure they would’ve survived the experience!). So they instead soaked up the sauce and cooked in the oven. The texture was similar to “normal” lasagna, but the pasta sheets were thinner.

That’s gorgeous. How does not pre-cooking the lasagna change the texture?

Oh, Kristin, you are so guilting me into buying a pasta maker – and I love you for it.

I can’t wait to spend a weekend making this!

(And did you start the new job yet? How’s it going!?)

I’m new to the world of food blogs (where have I been?)…but I LOVE this site. Your pics and descriptions are wonderful. I”m going to try this. I make my own pasta (all summer long too!) but by hand – no pasta machine. Not sure I can get the sheets thin enough for lasagna but I’m definatly going to give it a go!
