Is it important to pre-cook freshly made homade pasta for a Lasagna?!
With dried pasta, I always par-boil the lasagna noodles. Ive tried not pre-boiling the pasta and prefer the texture of the lasagna when I parboil the noodles. Now, I am making fresh lasagna for the 1st time. I've made pasta before but never lasagna.
So, should I pre-boil them or assemble the lasagna with uncooked pasta sheets.

Answers:
I do not par-cook homemade lasagna noodles. You don't even need to par-cook dried store-bought (even if they say "no boil"). I like the lighter texture of homemade noodles especially if I'm doing a vegetable or multi-cheese lasagna, as opposed to one with heavier proteins.
i prefer them boiled b/c when it bakes it has a fuller taste
