    That kernel of wisdom about adding more water to the sauce to make it need to cook longer to build the flavors was brilliant. I never thought of that before and I always omitted the water for a richer sauce. This forced me to boil the noodles because there wasn't enough water in the thick sauce to cook the dry noodles. Great tip, thank you.

    It is definitely worth learning to make your own pasta. The last two times I made lasagna with homemade pasta the flavor was noticeably better. And most important, I could size the pasta to fit my dishes so I didn't have to deal with standard-size strips that I had to cut to fit and get random pieces that fell apart when serving.

      I can easily agree with making the gravy a day ahead before making the lasagna, but the entire lasagna itself. I would be concerned that the different textures would reheat unevenly
      I am of Italian descent ... my ancestors settled in NYC, PA, and NJ. We grew up saying "gravy" for the tomato and meat mixture (Sunday gravy). For the brown gravy that went over meat, we called that brown gravy.
      Anything that didn't have meat, for example, marinara...that would be called a sauce. Just offered as an informational tidbit!.

    I'm not a fan of any pork in my lasagna but I construct mine similar to yours (including using regular dry noodles). The only difference in construction is I do different cheeses on each layer (some with a little mozzarella). Ricotta on one layer, cream cheese and mozza on another layer, mozza and parmesan reggiano on another layer, and finally mozza and cheddar on top. it's amazing!

    The (North) European Mind Cannot Comprehend This. We always use bechamel.
    Some questions for Frank:
    1. Why not shred up the pork chunks before adding them to the sauce so you avoid awkwardly fishing them out after?
    2. Why make so much effort to tie together herbs and removing them if you just add them back in later?

      1. You have to slow cook the pork in the sauce for hours to get it to fall apart like that
      2. His herb bundle thing is super useful for rosemary, lemongrass, etc. I have no earthly idea why he bundled basil and only basil

      bechamel is so much better than ricotta. Ricotta makes it sweet and cloying. Uniquely American.

    I have always used cottage cheese instead of ricotta. I do this, since cottage cheese isn't dry as ricotta.

    I actually literally made some lasagna today with "oven-ready" pasta. It works great and doesn't taste different to me, personally. I kinda like it better because, at least the one I bought, comes in flat sheets that fit my lasagna pan better than the other stuff that's longer and has the wavy edge.

    solid recipe, really enjoyed seeing Chef's sauce variation. I would only add that I never put the cheese on top. Although it presents well...all that browned up cheese looks tasty however, cut into it and the whole pieced fall apart. I layer my meat sauce on top and then sprinkle grated romano and parmesan

  • @etabeta9663

    As Frank says, there are different ways to make lasagne. And this the way it’s made in the US. The insane amount of meat (pork only??) and cheese is why it has the consistency and weight of freshly poured concrete and takes about the same time to digest. It surely looks great but after a plate you wanna go take a nap.
    If you’re a fan of Chicago pizza, go for it. But if you’re trying to recreate that delicious plate of lasagne you had in Italy, forget about this video.

  • @GolfCoachBuddy
    @GolfCoachBuddy 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    That looks like a fantastic lasagna. I've always boiled the noodles first, so this will be a new method for me. If you wanted to portion this out and freeze it, what is the best way to reheat it for service? Thank you. Do you ever have to add sugar?
