How many layers to make the perfect lasagna?

The success of a good vegetable lasagna depends not only on the quality of the ingredients, but also on the care taken when layering the dish. Here are a few useful tips to help you assemble it to perfection:

– Once the béchamel is ready, it’s important to start with a well-seasoned base: a thin layer of béchamel and pasta sauce on the bottom of the baking dish helps prevent the pasta from sticking and keeps the bottom layer moist.

– The ideal number of pasta layers is five, generous but balanced: each layer should be evenly covered with béchamel, a ladle of pasta sauce, and a sprinkle of grated plant-based cheese. This adds flavor and helps create a golden, appetizing crust on top.

– Avoid overloading the layers: too much filling can lead to uneven cooking and may compromise the structure of the lasagna.

– Lastly, don’t forget to let it rest: allowing the lasagna to sit for at least ten minutes after baking helps the flavors come together and makes it easier to cut and serve.
