Start with a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of the dish. I’m talking about a generous spoonful, spread like a cozy blanket. This isn’t just for flavor—it keeps the noodles from sticking and burning.
Think of it as a “sauce hug” for your first noodle layer. Without it, your lasagna will be a sticky disaster. And nobody wants to peel a noodle off a burned pan like they’re removing a bandage.
Pro tip: Use a spoon to spread it evenly. Don’t be lazy here—this is where discipline pays off.
