Helpful Hints: Pasta sometimes tends to stick together during or after


cooking. A helpful hint is to use plenty of water. Bring the water to a rapid
boil, add the pasta slowly, and stir during cooking to prevent sticking.
Pasta is best cooked al dente (ahl DEHN-tay), which means it is firm to the
bite! Cooking time varies depending on the thickness of the pasta. Since
the pasta in this dish will be baked, it can be cooked for a shorter time. Be
sure and drain the lasagna noodles and cool in a single layer to keep them
from sticking together.

Safety Tip: Pasta is cooked uncovered in a large amount of boiling water.


The boiling water helps circulate the pasta so it cooks evenly. Children
could easily get burned during this step, so adult supervision is a must.
Have a colander ready in the sink to drain the pasta so you can hold the pot
with two hands.
