Abstract
Abstract A lasagna noodle is formed of a substantially straight elongate ribbon of alimentary paste and having a plurality of corrugations extending transversely across the width of the ribbon, the length of the corrugations being less than the total width of the ribbon. The corrugations preferably extend both above and below the planar surfaces of the ribbon and the ends of the corrugations are closed. An elongate planar margin is defined between the elongate edges of the ribbon and the closed ends of the corrugations.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
56 words
A shaped alimentary paste product comprising a substantially straight elongate ribbon of said paste, said ribbon having a plurality of corrugations formed thereon, said corrugations extending transversely across the width of said ribbon, but having a length less than the total width of said ribbon, at least some of said corrugations being closed at their ends.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
56 words
A shaped alimentary paste product comprising a substantially straight elongate ribbon of said paste, said ribbon having a plurality of corrugations formed thereon, said corrugations extending transversely across the width of said ribbon, but having a length less than the total width of said ribbon, at least some of said corrugations being closed at their ends.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
The shaped alimentary paste product of claim 1, wherein all of said corrugations are closed at their ends.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
29 words
The shaped alimentary paste product of claim 1 wherein said ribbon includes a planar surface on each side thereof, and said corrugations rise above and below said planar surfaces.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
56 words
The shaped alimentary paste product of claim 1 wherein said ribbon includes a planar surface on at least one side thereof, and wherein said corrugations terminate short of at least one of the elongate edges of said ribbon, said planar surface defining a planar elongate margin between said elongate edge and the ends of said corrugations.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
50 words
The shaped alimentary paste product of claim 4 wherein said ribbon includes a planar surface on both sides thereof, and wherein said corrugations terminate short of both elongate edges of said ribbon to define a pair of spaced, but parallel, planar elongate margins along both elongate edges of said ribbon.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
74 words
The shaped alimentary paste product of claim 1 wherein all of said corrugations are closed at their ends, said ribbon having a planar surface on each side thereof, said corrugations rising above and below said planar surfaces, and wherein said corrugations terminate short of both elongate edges of said ribbon to define a pair of spaced, but parallel, planar elongate margins between both elongate edges of said ribbon and the ends of said corrugations.
