>>17321478
Yes, it's delicious if made properly.

>>17321478
Sweet sausage, in little pieces? And a layer of basil leaves right underneath the cheese? That's Carmela's lasagna.

>>17321478
>do you like lasagna?
I'd have to kill myself if I didn't. If you don't like lasagna you have major problems.
>>17321669
I want to see a slice of that plated. Hard to judge from it in the pan.

>>17321478
I was about to say that I couldn't understand how anyone could hate lasagna, but I remembered that one time my mom said she was going to make "lasagna", which ended up being canned crushed tomatoes between layers of pastas and a tin layer of pre-shredded mozzarella on top. Wasn't even cooked through
I still have no idea what went through her head at the time. I like to believe she wanted to get back at me for something I did, and not that she actually thought that shit was edible.

When I make mine I use shredded carrot in the mince red sauce and then I alternate that red sauce leyer with a layer of a bunch of cheese melted in some bechamel sauce. Shit's dope.

good lasagna is good, bad lasagna is bad, just like nearly every other food

I got something here that's pretty hard to fuck-up. It's called Chilidog a la Sarkypoo. Grab a large plate, open a few hot-dog bun completely and cover the entire plate with the buns. Next you grab 4-5 hotdogs and spread them over the bun, and at last the chili. Open a fresh can of Hormel canned chili with or without beans and pour it all over the dogs. Finally, stick the plate in the microwave and cook the living shit out of it for a good 4-5 minutes. Wala, chilidog a la Sark. This shit is unironically the bomb.

Damn I almost forgot the fucking CHEESE, if you're feeling fancy just sprinkle sum CHEESE just before nuking the thing into oblivion.

Yes, but only if I make it.

>>17321478
To be perfectly honest, yes, I do.

It's fine but I'd rather just have a baked ziti.

>>17321669
>if made properly.
You could try that, instead of having wet mush.

>>17321478
Yeah I go the stouffers, it blows the shit out of fancy restaurant stuff and I can make it anytime I want. One of these is like three meals.

>>17322710
>it blows the shit out of fancy restaurant stuff
Oh yeah totally...

of course, what kind a of fucking question is that.

>>17321478
My mom's lasagna is god tier

Yes I sure do

can you repeat the question?

>>17322710
>>17322728
Try the cheesy garlic one! I highly recommend and sometimes I add more garlic

>>17322728
You can't microwave it, you gotta bake it in the oven. I like to add extra mozzarella about halfway through cooking.

>>17321478
I pretend to read the menu at Italian restaurants, and always ask for the zag.

>>17321478
literally my favourite food since the age of 6.

>lasagna made properly with actual oven finished bolognese (not the tomato one) and actual bechamel, from fresh pasta plates with your homemade mozzarella

>>17322698
I do this too because the flavors are pretty identical and its significantly easier

>>17322698
Hello father intintola

When it's made well, which is almost always not the case in my experience. There seems to be a large discrepancy between the number of people who think they make great lasagna and the number of those people who actually know what the fuck they're doing.

9/10 times I'd rather just have baked ziti anyway

yes but it's too much effort for what it is

>>17321478
Why are you posting on /ck/, Garfield?

It just tastes like cheesey spaghetti there is no point

>>17325162
because I love you Jon

>>17324967
I agree with you on the bechamel but since when is using non-tomato based sauce considered proper for lasagna? I've never heard of that before.

>>17325162
Because I love lasagna cunt

>>17325288
ragu` bolognese should be done without tomatoes and using only 20g of tomato paste.
The modern recipe uses tomato passata, but I like it more without it

>>17325679
Yeah, I bet it goes great with your clove cigarettes, cool guy.

>>17325775
I smoke cigars, principally toscanos since they are cheap here. clove cigarette are nice once in a while

if it doesn’t have ricotta, it belongs in the trash.

>>17325883
ricotta is basically lumpy milk. you can't change my mind

>>17325842
I don't have any

>>17325895
Ricotta is better than Mediterranean yogurt.

>>17325895
Cottage cheese is lumpy. Ricotta is grainy.

>>17321669
>if made properly
Is that one layer of pasta? Looks like someone didn't discard the seeds of the tomato as this looks a bit too liquid.
I would eat that tho, but only by doing exaggerated slurping noises to passive aggressively let the maker know that she/he fucked up.

>>17325883
>>17325895
>>17326079
I always use small curd cottage cheese
The smaller curds are a lot less lumpy than typical cott.chz

>>17325162
Why aren't you posting on /lgbt, John?

>>17326079
aye you're right

>>17321669
bro, put it back in, she ain't done yet.

>>17321478
i love lasagna
I've watched some american™ recipes and i think you put ricotta in it, which ofc is a great improvization erm i mean improvement on the original recipe

>>17321478
Love it, made it just recently. Gonna make a chicken and mushroom one this week, meat prices being what they are, but beef lasagne will always be king.

It aint good unless you see the slop bursting from the noodles at scoop

>>17325883
>>17325895
used to hate and avoid ricotta but I've started to appreciate some of the texture and taste it brings. with and without are both good

>>17321669
pain in the ass making the sheets, even with a machine. question to some of you, do you need to parboil the sheets or no? Haven't tried it yet without parboiling.
