cooking is easy.. it's only really rocky in the beginning when trying to figure out the effects of different ingredients.. after that it's pretty much "flavor arithmetic" if you will, and keeping a timer in your head. I work in a kitchen and never even went to culinary school haha... I did learn pretty much everything I know from my pops though, who DID attend one. I do want to eventually enroll in one, if not for the certificate alone.. I've been lucky to work in so many establishments without the "proper papers" and s**t

I'm still trying to get the hang of BAKING, though.. I don't deal well with sugary s**t, I'm a salt kinda guy

i remember asking you whether or not you're supposed to boil lasagne sheets before you put them on top of the meaty stuff o:

Mastero said to boil them and so that's what I've been doing ever since! All this extra work and I don't even have to. No wonder he doesn't have the proper papers D:

We ARE collabing, I wait in the studio everyday for you but you never show up sad
You don't really have to boil the sheets to make lasagna, but I've found that more of the meat flavor transfers over to the sheets if they're already softened up.. not to mention you get a much better representation of your actual lasagna size as you're setting it up, thus allowing you the freedom to add *rick ross voice* MORE MEAT (MORE MEAT) MORE CHEESE (MORE CHEESE) MORE PLATES (MORE PLATES) MORE GREASE (BAWSE)

Are you talking about a quick, easy lasanya that's like a pie made out of pasta and ragu sauce

or a massive affair that contains more than enough cheese and meat sauce cooked for a day and a half for the lasagna to taste like it regardless of boiling the pasta first? And then adding MORE meat sauce cooked for a day and a half on top?
The lasagna in my mind's eye was kind of a mix between the two, actually.. like quick enough to assemble in a day's time but enough to feed an army of starved italian saw mill workers

I've done it both ways successfully, but when I pre-boil the sheets, the final result usually ends up with the sheets being a bit redder and fuller.. the difference may not be too stark but I like it. The effect increases if I decide to make it a day or so in advance and let the s**t marinate before I cook it.. the whole thing turns red on me haha

The difference between the two is damn near imperceptible anyway, as long as you have enough meat you're good xd . I mainly pre-boil to ensure color and the space to include the aforementioned MO' MEAT scenario
A DAY?!?! That's an exaggeration, right..? :/

Such false accusations! I would never say no talk2hand

The part that takes the MOST time is making the sauce, if you're making your own sauce, especially the way my grandma's recipe goes. Takes AT LEAST a day to simmer to perfection. The rest isn't too much.

Okay, fine, let's collaborate.

I can cook, but I don't want to do it in a restaurant.
I am a better baker than cook.
