What is "lasagna"?
Lasagna is a type of pasta characterized by its wide, flat, rectangular sheets. It is a staple in Italian cuisine and is commonly used to make the popular layered dish known as lasagna. Traditional lasagna pasta is made from durum wheat semolina and water, although variations made from other grains such as whole wheat or rice flour also exist. Lasagna sheets are typically boiled until al dente before being layered with sauce, cheese, and other ingredients to create the iconic lasagna dish. Lasagna pasta can also be used in other recipes, such as baked pasta dishes or casseroles, where its flat shape and sturdy texture hold up well to baking and layering with other ingredients.

What is "lasagna"?
Lasagna is a classic Italian baked pasta dish made with layers of thin pasta sheets, a tomato-based sauce, and cheese. The many layers are what give lasagna its name, which comes from the Italian word lasagna meaning "plate" or "dish." It is typically layered with sauce, meat, and cheese, and baked in the oven until the cheese melts and the sauce is bubbling. The dish is often described as having a cheesy, saucy, fresh and clean smell out of the oven. It is a classic Italian American dish traditionally served on special occasions and holidays.
