Some people swear you have to boil lasagna noodles for exactly 8 minutes and 47 seconds. Myth! It’s a lie spread by people who love precision and hate fun. As long as you’re within the 8-to-10-minute ballpark, your noodles will be perfect.
The real secret? Your instincts matter. If the noodle tastes slightly underdone when you bite into a test piece, it’s ready for the oven. It’s like cooking pasta with a crystal ball, but way less dramatic.
