Tag: Lasagna

I had a lot of pasta sheets leftover from yesterday’s Lasagna-feast. Like a lot. But sadly no more meat sauce. I figured there’s white pizza so I could definitely make a white lasagna. The overall idea was to make a Bechamel sauce but infuse it with shallots and leeks, just because I had some in my fridge. I think sun-dried tomatoes would have been really good in this, but I didn’t have any, so I went for roasted red peppers.

I made lasagna al forno today. I made the meat sauce as usual, except I added some pancetta. This actually was really good except it rendered a ton of fat into the sauce that I had to skim off. Next time I should probably render the fat first before adding into the sauce. The other difference was that I used Kirkland brand canned tomatoes and they didn’t cook down as nicely as San Marzano tomatoes.
