This is the toughest part. But, to keep from having a mess when it’s served, please refrain from serving this without letting it sit.
At the 20-minute mark, cut with a knife, and serve with a large spatula.
This recipe provides the lasagna lovers with a plethora of lasagna offerings. Crunchy corners with browned cheese. Hardened center edges (not crunchy) with soft cheese. Soft center sections with soft, gooey cheese.
The leftovers are great cold, hot, or between two slices of Dave’s Killer Bread (lasagna sandwiches are my youngest daughter’s all-time favorite).
Alec, our oldest boy, was home from college 2 years ago. He and his brother, Derek, were working for the summer to earn money.
After we finished eating, an entire pan (minus 2 child-sized slices) of lasagna remained.
“I bet you can’t eat that,” I said, gesturing to the pan.
“Eat what?” he asked.
“That lasagna.”
“The entire thing?”
“Yep.”
“Why would I?”
“You wouldn’t.”
He looked at me funny. “Huh?”
“I was just saying, there’s no way you can eat it.”
He looked at it, and then at me. “You don’t think I can?”
“I know you can’t.”
Alec, like me, hates to be told he can’t do something. He lifted he pan, carried to the table, and commenced to eat the entire thing.
Granted, he’s 6’-6” and athletic, but still.
When finished, he patted his stomach. “That’s some good fucking lasagna, Pop.”
Enjoy.
