dumbass.
the bechamel is on top, there still should be a layer of ricotta in there

>>11063679
I honestly believe it's a cheaper alternative and people are simply used to it in whatever recipes they list. Ricotta is the superior product. There could have been a time 25+ years ago grandmothers might not have easily found ricotta on the shelf at some groceries, though certainly not true today.

nice try faggot

>>11063679
bechamel simply tastes better.

>>11063730
I don't watch the youtube. what does this mean?

>>11063679
Because ricotta is an abomination and isn't in real lasagna.

>>11063691
this.

>>11064144
Actual fact: cottage cheese is much better

>>11064177
I don't mind it for a meat type lasagna but a rich buttery ricotta is my preference for a veggie lasagna.

>>11063697
25 years ago they would have just made it themselves. It’s not fucking hard.

>>11063679
You only put one layer of ricotta, chintzy.

>>11064199
why would you ever make a non-meat type lasagna?

>>11063679
i think it started out because of no-boil noodles. people think they need to have a fuckton of liquid in there.

>>11064352
Because it can taste amazing? A spinach+mushroom lasagna can be goddamn great.
Now whether you would actually call that a "lasagna" is another question, but it's good shit regardless.

Fuck I'm gonna go buy some premade supermarket lasagna, and nobody will stop me.

>>11064605
Enjoy your high blood pressure.

Real gs roll in silence like lasagña

>>11064605
Lasagna is the only food I ever really buy premade. The effort put into making it VS final product isn't really worth it.

>>11063679
Because Chefs are slowly ruining cooking.

>>11063679
Jesus you Americans are fucking embarrassing. A bechamel is literally the correct way to make lasagne, using ricotta is just a fake American invention.

>>11063679
ricotta is garbage and so is bechamel.

Oaxaoan, coby, parmesan and Romano cheeses make the best mix for a hearty lasagne.

>>11063679
>why are more and more people replacing the layer of ricotta cheese in lasagna with a bechamel sauce?

>>11065742
Jesus, just make the sauce by the gallon and freeze it. You can throw a lasagne together in 10 minutes.

A simple meat sauce only takes a few hours and can also be used with other pasta. Its cheap and if you eat in a month or two won't loose its flavor. And if you add a lot of veggies it can be very nutritious.

>>11063679
>bechamel sauce
In culinary circles it's known as Bechamel.
Adding the word sauce is unecessary
You'd know this if you weren't a cross board shitposter with a limited IQ.
Hope this helps your future attempts at trolling.
Retard.

>>11063697
>25 years ago
Retard millennial thinks he discovered something.
That would be 1993 fucktard. Do you honestly think ricotta wasnt a standard in every grocery store? Guess what...we also had fresh garlic cereal and bacon. Can you believe that shit??? What a time to be alive!

>>11063697
ricotta was actually a "waste" product of cheese production, it was the cheese of the poor people in italy

>>11063679
did someone say lasaga
give me my lasaga
Hey John get your white ass in the kitchen and me me some dogdanm lasaga

>>11063679
I have volcanic farts after ricotta

>>11064352
i've had my fair share of meat in my lasaagna and now im ready to settle down for a simple veggie one

>tfw mom stopped making beef lasagna and started using turkey mince instead
it's just not the same

>>11066646
>vasagna.jpg

>>11066089
It's cheaper because it's easier to make, but I think you're thinking of whey being the waste product of cheese making, not ricotta.

>>11067745
Ricotta is made from whey, idiot.

>>11065967
Garlic cereal sounds gross desu

>>11063679
I don't use either in my lasagna.

Googling bechamel it just looks like white gravy.

>>11065782
>>11065802

I want some lasaga

I prefer the bechemel version because of the flavor and because it's not as heavy as the ricotta versions.

Ricotta is correct for Italian-american lasagna. They didn't have access to the same ingredients as they did back in italy.

>>11068564
>can't get milk, flour and butter for bechemel
>can for ricotta

1kg TK-Lasagne, Pidser und Koler vom Rewe, Brudi?

>>11067763
it's an italian dish so americans fucking up the ingredients and also thinking their way is the traditional way when it isn't is worth pointing out

>>11070329
the oldest known lasagna recipes is way different than what's common now so technically Italians and americans are the ones who think their way is the traditional way when it's not
