    I love your recipe so much I'm making another batch today.
    Btw, I don't layer. I simply pour the ziti/ricotta mix in a 13x9 pan, pour over the meat sauce (I add mushrooms to it), then sprinkle the cheeses on top. Comes out wonderful! It makes about 6 BIG servings. It stores beautifully in the frig. Take some to work!

    I, too, always 'schwish' out my jars to get all the sauce -- but I use a 1/4 cup measure and pull the starchy cooking water right from the pasta and use that. Not only does it clean the jar, but it thickens the sauce at the same time.

    • @tomn5880
      @tomn5880 4 роки тому +1

      I do the same thing. I will add some chopped dehydrated to further dry the sauce if necessary. Wife thinks I'm nuts but then I'm a married man anyway. I think Sabarrow had the best baked zitti and garlic roll when they were in business.

    You can use the whole one pound box of ziti. Just make a little more sauce. Then make the baked ziti in two smaller pans, or even that size and a little side one. (Which can be frozen for later if you don’t have enough guests to eat it up.)
    Love you, Jenny! You are da bomb!!

    Best easy recipe on UA-cam ever!
    I made this, only thing I did differently was seasoning the ground beef with cummin, oregano y adobo Goya.
    It was a total success! Thanks Jenny!

    • @mdmobarak1
      @mdmobarak1 4 роки тому +1

      Qban Celli , yes, I noticed she did not use any seasoning. Pasta needs to be cooked in salted water. That is the only time the pasta will absorb flavor.

    PS: My grandmother, rest her sole, was Polish, and I remember her cooking all of the time. No recipes for her. She did everything by taste. I always wanted to cook like her, and I do. Once I'm comfortable with a recipe, I do my own thing. My recipes never turn out quite the same, but my family loves them. I've even thrown things together, no recipe, and it always comes out excellent. Thank you, Grandma! :D

    * re adding water: Save a bit of the water before you drain your pasta. It helps melt every thing together as well as thinning down your mixture. Nice recipe, Jenny!

But I love it and it makes life easier for me so I made your baked ziti today inside of a half an hour, huge pan for my house and a huge pain for my daughters house! Thank you so much, I enjoy all your recipes!
