Letting your lasagna get too soupy

It takes hours in the kitchen to prepare lasagna, and when the time comes to eat it, a huge spoon is required since the lasagna is so soupy. It's a typical beginner error, and a number of things might cause it to happen. You can stay clear of this watery mess in the future by being mindful of the offenders. Simply said, using too much sauce is the main cause of soupy lasagna. This is an example of when something is too much of a good thing. Use just enough sauce to coat each layer of cooked lasagna without going overboard so that it doesn't drown in the sauce.

Another cause of watery lasagna is moist ingredients. If you're using ricotta, squeeze out any extra moisture using cheesecloth. Similarly, while preparing meat lasagna, be sure to drain off any extra oil that might spoil a tasty dish. Last but not least, beware of vegetables high in moisture, such as zucchini and mushrooms, which might overwater your meal. Before putting veggies in lasagna, DeLallo advises cooking them first.
