Baked Ziti (programming.dev)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by white_nrdy@programming.dev to c/cooking@lemmy.world
 

A couple friends just had a baby. So my SO and I brought a Baked Ziti. I'm the one who made this, I'm still learning to cook well when my partner is amazing. They tasted it and said "I've taught you will, young grasshopper", so that was nice.

Edit: if anyone is curious, here's the recipe. https://www.onceuponachef.com/recipes/baked-ziti-with-sausage.html#recipe

I’m torn. I want to positively reinforce your appropriate use of the comma but it might have been more fun if you hadn’t.

That looks delicious! But it also looks like penne.

[–] white_nrdy@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes, you are correct. I guess baked penne would be a better name. My SO doesn't like Ziti.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Sorry, but you're gonna have to find a new partner; this one's defective.

Very nice work. I'm hungry now.

Looks great, my only suggestion is add more sauce as especially the edges look dry. That said I love saucy pasta

[–] white_nrdy@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, it is definitely weaker in the sauce department. The grocery store only had 1lb bulk tubes (didn't wanna decase links) and I needed 1.5 lbs. So I used two pounds and added a little jarred sauce to compensate, should have added more

[–] vrek@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

I like doing what I call "building up" my sauce. Like a jar of store bought sauce, a large diced onion grilled till translucent, 1 or 2 diced peppers, a can of tomato paste, a can of tomato sauce, a can of diced tomatoes, a lb of browned ground beef, a package of sliced mushrooms, some mozzarella cheese, some Parmesan cheese, some ricotta cheese, a few cloves of garlic, basil, onion powder, garlic powder, rosemary, paprika, a dash of cloves, thyme

Pour into a pot, medium heat for maybe 45 minutes to an hour, boil pasta to aldente ,layer of sauce, layer of pasta, optionally a layer of sausage slices , a layer of cheese, a layer of sauce, a layer of pasta, a layer of sauce, optional sausage, a layer of cheese and bake at 350 for an hour...

Typically that can feed my teenage son, girl friend and myself for like 4 days and sometimes throw out the end because we are sick of eating so much pasta for 4 days...
