I do pasta dishes all the time. Make the pasta dish of whatever it is you want to freeze dry, put it into the tray and freeze it. After it's frozen put it in the freeze drier and run it through a normal cycle, I like to give it a little extra dry time to be sure. When the cycle is done, break into appropriate size chunks for a Mylar bag, add an Oxygen absorber and if you can suck out a little air then seal. To rehydrate, put as much of the pasta as you want to use into a bowl and slowly add boiling water while gently stirring. When the pasta is the correct consistency enjoy.
