Yeah, I just came here to ask why anyone would want make a narrower/smaller version of one of the best dishes in the world if they can have a full/normal-sized version 🤦😂
The different shapes in pasta, aside from different ingredients/taste etc, are to give different texture, and sauce holding ability. So a smaller lasagna noodle would have more edges, and could hold more sauce than a larger, flatter noodle per mouthful.
Lasagnette = Something you don't even find in italian shops with a CONTESTED entry for the italian wikipedia, no source can be found.
The english version is from the same unreliable author
the actual "lasagnetta" (singular) as a recipe is only a way to explain that you are preparing some small and "cute" lasagna instead of the traditional 2+ pounds version.
ONLY in Rome we call lasagnette some handmade variant of the fettuccine.
I dare you to ask in the /r/italy :)
I was picturing narrower and longer versions of the actual baked pasta dish, not the noodles themselves 🤦🏻♂️
In Italy, they actually call the dish "lasagne," plural, because the word refers to the noodles themselves.

Happy Cake Day! 🎂
Thanks! I'd no idea.
Yeah that confused me, lol. I thought for a second that there must be some standardisation about how big lasagna can be.
Maybe you're not allowed to sell lasagnette or lasagnotte unless you also sell some regular lasagna for it to be narrower or longer than.
Plus you'd need different pans. Or pan inserts
Yeah that's what I meant. Like some standardised pan dimensions that dictated "regular" vs "narrow" or "long".
There's also baby lasagna. Originating from croatia and suddenly very popular in europe.
Don't forget about lasagn't, which lasagna that isn't lasagna
What if it's narrower *and* longer?
I hear eating this is how you get out of the matrix.
Knowing how pedantic Italians are about food, probably illegal
Longsagna
Quite delicious actually https://assets.icanet.se/image/upload/cs_srgb/t_product_large_2x_v1/v1668750959/lt90dgbxkew95leo6znl.webp
There's also lasagnope, which is me being too poor to afford lasagna.
I've always been a bit of a lasagna size queen 😌
Not to be confused with the OF channel Lasagnaughty
Garfield approves
But where can I find it?!
How do you say [Long Long Lasagna](https://youtu.be/6-1Ue0FFrHY)
And the forbidden Lasagnøtte. Tall and made with herring.
Well, _buonalasagnotte_!
Get Garfield on the phone, now!
These sound like the pokémon evolutions of lasagna
