Should I cover lasagna while cooking it?

Will covering it help to prevent it from drying out? Merry Christmas!

It's all about the sauce!

Hi Bonnie,

You don't need to cover it, no.

The key thing is to save plenty of sauce to put on the very top layer, along with a sprinkling of grated parmesan. (Don't add mozzarella or basil however, as these will burn.)

That's what I do and dry lasagna is never a problem!

Merry Christmas to you to, have a great holiday.

Matt.

PS: Since you love lasagna, you might find my new pasta cookbook of interest. It has a whole section of easy-to-print lasagna recipes inside and comes with a free and exclusive Lasagna 101 guide. Ciao!

OOPS forgot to buy foil to cover
by: Anonymous

What if I forgot to get foil & I have the no-boil lasagne & I already put the mozarella cheese & parm cheese on the top & I have people eating over waiting?

YIKES AM I UN TROUBLE

Don't worry

As explained above, you don't need to cover it.

If you have any tomato sauce, left, add a little to the top.

As for the cheese etc., just put it in the bottom of your oven, at 180C/350F, and watch it carefully to see it doesn't burn.

It'll be fine! :-)
