Over the years, I am often asked how to cook lasagna noodles without boiling them. Some people want a faster method, but most want to prevent breaking the noodles, while others just do not have a pot that is large enough. Using a large casserole dish, this method prevents breakage of the noodles which makes for a less stressful recipe and a large pot is not needed, just a long casserole dish. This method saves a little time because it doesn’t take as long to boil 2 quarts of water compared to a stock pot full of water. Meanwhile, I hope you find this method useful.
