/ck/ — Why does lasagna exist? Who decided that pasta needed to be

>>22065284 (OP)
Lasagna is the most basic form of food where presentation is part of the experience. It's a remnant of an age when nobility felt that the effort that went into making something complicated was part of the appeal. If you don't get it, your ancestors were peasants

You're annoying to cook.

No.
He just had them beheaded if they didn't know he wanted lasagne that night.

Why does pasta exist?
Who decided that bread needed to be even more annoying to cook?

Other way around is not likely. Lasagne are one of the oldest pasta shapes. Only couscous and a handful of others are older. So my guess is that nobody decided to make pasta more difficult to prepare, they decided to make it easier to prepare. They cut (taglia) lasagne into strands (tagliatelle) or decided to slice (fette) into ribbons (fettuccine) to simplify the preparation.

>not likely
MORE likely. Fucking autocorrect.

I think OP was talking more about the assembly process.

>>22065284 (OP)
People who care about presentation. That's all it really has going for it.

I'm with ya though, I'm not at all the biggest fan of lasagna. The same basic taste can be made through normal pasta with added cheese, or just make the layers in your bowl. It's such unnecessary added hassle to construct. and even in the end AFTER waiting like 30 minutes for it to stop being a pile of molten lava and firm up, lasagna isn't even that fun to eat. And if you choose to not parboil the lasagna sheets, it'll take like an hour for it to be done since the water transfers much more slowly.

Lasagna is the easiest thing to make. Don't even boil the noodles. It makes it worse and watery. Throw it all together and bake. Comes out great. Hardly any work involved. Not sure why lasagna sheets are 2x the price per pound of regular pasta though.

>>22065284 (OP)
Because of the noodle.
When forming the dough by rotating it throug the two cylinders it is actually the easiest to keep the wide flat "carpet" as a single noodle, no cutting, no nothing.
So now you got some wide long single noodle sheets, to use these the obvious way is putting them on top of each other, with sauce etc between them. Wallah - lasagna.

It's a conspiracy so vegetarians have something to cook where they can hide that they're not eating meat.

Yes, many who have tried to shove me in an oven have told me that.

what's the best way to re-heat leftover lasagna?
for me it's
>wrap a wedge of it in 2 layers of tin foil
>boil it
feels like it gets the heat the most evenly distributed

Fuck you, you lowclass nigger trash. Lasagna is supreme, the epitome of Italian cuisine, and I won't stand to have someone of your stature even imply that this magnificent ambrosia of the gods is anything less than perfection itself of the culinary arts.

Y'know that modern lasanga does not need cooking, right? You just put it directly in the oven, that's it.
