FAQs?
How to prevent ziti from drying out?
Make a layer of sauce at the top of the pasta to retain the moisture and then spread cheese over it. Also, make sure to cover it with the foil before baking as it will lock all the moisture inside.
How to reheat the baked ziti?
Take the ziti out of the fridge at least half an hour before heating. Thaw your ziti and then reheat in the oven after slightly packing with the foil.
