Then, add a layer of white sauce, followed by another single layer of pasta sheets. Feel free to add more layers to accommodate a large party. However, the majority of chefs agree that every lasagna should have a minimum of three layers. Use any fresh cheese like fior di latte, bocconcini, or fresh mozzarella with a little bit of fresh parmesan.
Adding egg to ricotta cheese helps to bind the cheese for lasagna so that it does not ooze out of the casserole when cut. I can't put it on lasagna. To answer the question, lasagna is my choice.
I prefer the texture. Baked ziti never really did it for me. I prefer a dish made up the same general way using tortelloni instead, with lots of cheese; ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, romano et al. I also like a heavier meat sauce using finely crumbled sweet and hot sausage. Maybe if you did it the Italian way, it won't be too French for you. We can all have them.
Another point Italy is a big place. You can go less than a kilometer away into a different neighborhood and find a dish that you just ate moments before prepared and presented in a completely different way. Would you tell them that they didn't do it the Italian way? I'm curious about that. That sounds pretty French to me. Whether it's used in any Italian cuisine or not does not change it's origin from seeming to me to be really French.
But then again, I could be wrong. Last edited: Feb 16, Iceman: You are right. I was a lil harsh in the previous post.
I really didn't mean to attack your opinion like that. I gave your words too much weight treated them as if you were some culinary master leading us to the light. I did also let my ego get in the way of good judgment. My family is from San Marino and we are very proud of the way we prepare lasagna. That does not give us the right to walk around like we are the gold standard for all things lasagna. You are just another dude, like the rest of us sharing your knowledge and opinions, and deserve such respect.
Of course there are many regional differences in the preparation of food in Italy and all cultures for that matter. I was trying to make that point with my reference to the lasagna verdi. Although in many parts of America, they are available in wide flat ribbons. The sizes of lasagna might differ and may appear different sometimes.
However, they are always flat. If you want to identify lasagna, the flat shape will directly guide you about the lasagna.
Layer baked casserole is also called which is usually made with an organized form. The layered casserole starts with pasta, cheese, sauce, and your desired fillings.
Lasagna is a traditional and famous Italian pasta which is loved all around the world. It has more popularity than baked ziti or any other type of pasta. Ziti is also one of the kinds of pasta, but it has a different and peculiar shape.
Tubular pasta with a curved or circular shape is called ziti. They are very different from lasagna. Ziti has its sides cut with base, they are 1 cm in diameter.
Lasagna is rather layered, however, baked ziti is cooked with a random combination and intermixing of sauce, fillings, cheese, and pasta ziti in baked ziti.
