For dinner tonight I decided to make a Lasangna. I was in the grocery store Picking up a few thingsand saw they had Ground Sausage on sale , and the first thing I Thought was that will make a Great Lasangna, So I bought, got some Ricotta, Motazerella , and Parasarm ( all Part Skim, the whole milk stuff adds to much fluid ) , some Tomato Puree , and Paste and some flour , Got home fired up the Pasta Machine and went to town , Now teh Kitchen Smells heavenly.

But I digresss

What Type of Lasngna do you perfer ? Personally I love most Types , although Meatless is just a Little weak in the knees, and I did not like it using ground lamb.

I'm calling out Webster as being full of $hit if they have "lasangna" as an acceptable form of lasagna.

you forgot spinach.


my mom's lasagna was always ground beef only, w/ the usual mozz/parm/ricotta mix of cheese and homemade sauce.

the wife does it w/ spinach and ground beef (and the cheese/sauce, of course).

i like it in any available format.

I like a layer of spinach. Some small bits of pepperoni mixed in adds a nice touch.

Veggie lasagna with spinach, a white sauce, limited tomatoes, and lots of pine nuts takes the win for me.

You yanks change everything! It is 'Lasagne'. There is no other spelling.
Minced beef.

On a by-note, Lasagne is one of the main components of my "Last Supper".

No no no, it's "lazanya".

:monkeydance:

And I have not met many I didn't like.

I really like "white lasagnas" with lots of herbs and bechamel/cheese. I once had a deconstructed lasagna with sage, sausage, chanterelles, lots of creamy cheese sauce, and fresh pasta sheets just kind of folded over on itself, then baked with a bit more cheese on top to get a good browning. Pretty much best ever. I've also had a pesto lasagna that was friggin killer. MMM lasagna.

Meat (beef or sausage or a combo usually) or meatless is fine by me and I like it was spinach as well.

For someone who lives in a state with lots of Eye-talians, you need to look it up in Websters?

If you believe Wiki, that is actually the plural of lasagna. And it's derived from the word for chamber pot. :twitch:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lasagna

The word "lasagna" is derived from the Greek word "lasanon" meaning chamber pot.[3][4] The word was later borrowed by the Romans as "lasanum" to mean cooking pot. The Italians then used the word to refer to the dish in which what is now known as lasagna is made. The word lasagna or lasagne (plural) now simply applies to the food itself.[5] Most English-speaking people follow the Italian usage and use the plural "lasagne" to refer to both the dish and the pasta, but Americans commonly use the singular "lasagna".

I couldn't spell cacciatore, but Lasagna was my favorite growing up.

My mother grew up next to an immigrant Italian family and they traded secrets. Somewhere there is an Italian woman who makes great Cantonese Lobster.

Best lasagna I've ever had was made with a "proper" ragł alla bolognese... :drool:

Followed closely by a vegetarian spinach version... :drool:
