AUTHENTIC BAKED ZITI
Baked Ziti is a wonderful dish all its own. When done correctly, it is actually very different from lasagna. If you get good ingredients and follow this recipe, you will end up with a delicious and unique authentic Italian meal that tastes like nothing you've ever had before! A word about the ingredients: fresh mozzarella cheese is not the same thing as part-skim mozarella cheese. Use fresh mozarella in this recipe. Marzano tomatoes are a must for this recipe as well, but in a pinch, Progresso whole Italian tomatoes will do. Fresh herbs can be found in the produce section of most stores, but dried herbs can be substituted.

Steps:
- SAUCE.
- Remove the sausage casings and crumble the sausage.
- Add 2 teaspoons of olive oil to a pan, and brown the sausage.
- Puree the tomatoes in a blender (not too much).
- Add onions and garlic to now-browned sausage. Cook for a few more minutes until transparent.

- Add a generous pinch of the pepper flakes.
- Stir this up, heat to near-boil, then let it simmer covered on low for 15 minutes.
- BUILDING THE DISH.
- Boil your ziti pasta to not quite al-dente. Don't overboil, pasta will soften while baking.
- Cut the mozarella, half of it into 1/2 inch cubes, the other half in as thin of slices as you can manage.
- Remove the herb sprigs from the sauce and discard.
- Add the can of tomato paste to your sauce to thicken it up and give it a lively red color and more intense flavor.
- Add the pasta, your sauce, the cubed mozarella and half the parmesan in a baking dish.
- Top with the sliced mozarella and the remainder of the parmesan.
- Bake for about 30 minutes until golden.
FAKE-BAKED ZITI
I saw this recipe on 30 Minute Meals by Rachael Ray on the Food Network. It looked so good I had to try it out. I have to say, it tastes as good as it looks! It really does only take 30 minutes, maybe less once you get used to making it and don't have to take the time to look at the recipe. On the show, she makes her own tomato sauce, but I just used a jar sauce, which takes less time and tastes just as good.

- Preheat the oven to 450° and bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ziti to the pot and boil until just al dente. Drain and return the ziti to the pot.
- Meanwhile, in a large, deep skillet, heat the olive oil. Add the onion and garlic, cover and cook until just softened, about 2 minutes. Add the ground sirloin, crushed red pepper and paprika and season with salt. Cook over high heat, stirring to break up the meat with a spoon, until the meat is no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Add the marinara sauce and bring to a boil. Cover partially and cook over moderate heat for 5 minutes.
- Add the sauce to the ziti in the pot and stir to coat it thoroughly. Add the ricotta in large dollops and stir gently, leaving it in large clumps. Pour half of the ziti into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and top with half of the mozzarella and Parmigiano. Repeat with the remaining ziti and cheeses.
- Bake the ziti on the top rack of the oven for about 15 minutes, until it is bubbling and browned. Let the ziti rest for 10 minutes before serving.
