My Baked Ziti

Hey everyone, it is me, Dave, welcome to my recipe page. Today, I will show you a way to make a distinctive dish, my baked ziti. One of my favorites food recipes. This time, I am going to make it a little bit tasty. This will be really delicious.

Try RICOTTA CHEESE instead of sour cream and skip the provolone for a real Italian version of Baked Ziti. Mix an egg into a pound of ricotta to make it nice and creamy, and toss with the ziti. Layer sauce first (so you don't need to butter the pan), then ziti/cheese, mozzarella, sprinkle with parm and a little dried oregano or basil, then. Mix pasta sauce, ricotta and reserved pasta cooking water in large bowl.

Learn how to make Baked Ziti. Cook the ziti until not quite al dente. This baked ziti is layered almost like a lasagna to ensure every bite has enough creamy ricotta, stringy mozzarella and tangy tomato sauce But the key to its success comes from undercooking the pasta during the initial boil so it stays perfectly al dente, even after a trip to the oven Heavy cream is added to prevent the ricotta from becoming grainy or dry during baking, letting it be its most.

Steps to make My Baked Ziti:
  1. Preheat oven 350°F.
  2. Boil pasta how you normally would. I don’t recommend fully cooking it as it will go into the oven for about 20 minutes. Drain pasta when cooked.
  3. Grease your pan with oil or butter. I prefer with oil.
  4. In a bowl, mix the ziti with half of the sauce by itself. Mix in some of each cheese. A cup and a half total.
  5. At the bottom of the pan, pour a small amount of the leftover sauce, smearing it all over the bottom of the pan.
  6. Pour some of the pasta (about half) in the pan. Cover the top in cheese. Depending on your pan/baking dish, repeat this step multiple time. Remember that the top layer also needs cheese.
  7. Place in oven for about 20-30 minutes.
  8. Enjoy while hot!
