In cooking, al forno is
Italian that describes food that is "at/from the oven". Baked pizza, breads and pasta dishes are often part of this genre. Pasta that is "al forno" is also often
al dente which means "at/to the tooth". One of the most common pasta dishes one will see the label "al forno" affixed to is
lasagna. Al forno usage can vary from a more strict use of only the traditional wood-fired brick oven or more loosely used in more modern recipes that use a
conventional oven like the
casserole "
Ziti Al Forno".
