Tips:

  • For perfectly al dente pasta, cook it for 1-2 minutes less than the package instructions. This ensures that the pasta retains a slightly firm bite.
  • Use a large baking dish to ensure that the pasta is evenly cooked and doesn't clump together.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish. If you are using a large amount of pasta, consider using two baking dishes.
  • Be generous with the cheese. A good amount of cheese will help to create a creamy, flavorful sauce.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese. A combination of mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan is a classic choice, but you can also try using other cheeses like Gouda, Gruyère, or Fontina.
  • If you want a crispy top, sprinkle some breadcrumbs or grated Parmesan cheese on top of the pasta before baking.
  • Serve the pasta immediately after baking. This is when it is at its best, with a crispy top and a creamy, flavorful interior.
