Yes, I am sure. The sentence "To make perfect lasagna, an authentic Italian recipe is a good start." contains a misplaced modifier. The phrase "To make perfect lasagna" is modifying the subject "an authentic Italian recipe," but it should be placed next to the verb "is." The sentence can be revised to correct the misplaced modifier: "An authentic Italian recipe is a good start to make perfect lasagna."
