    smittenkitchen.com/2020/02/pe...
    A sky-high vegetable lasagna, five layers of noodles, sauce, cheese, and vegetables (that are not an afterthought, for once). The top layer is crackly with melted, deeply bronzed cheese over a thin slick of garlicky tomato sauce and might be the very best reason to make this.

    I love these and you! I have your Smitten Kitchen cookbook and it is my favorite. I know it's my most used because it has the most spills and smears on all the pages. I have no idea how people keep their cookbooks so pristine. Thank you for all the wonderful, DOABLE recipes! Oh! and would love to see you make your heart-stuffed shells in lemon ricotta sauce. It is my favorite!!!

    Deb, you are the OG of cooking blogs. I never cooked from scratch until I found you (pre social media). Your recipes are top notch and you are so classy. I have never watched a video of you cooking and now I love you even more. Well I take that back, your essay in the NY times over the summer made me feel like we were friends.

    This looks SO yummy! If you add eggs to the ricotta (as my Italian grandmothers did), it will not be dry. We always season it with salt and pepper and oregano or parsley or Italian seasoning.

    • @richardwallace6313
      @richardwallace6313 2 года назад +1

      yep, that is the way, though you can use any number of herbs depending on your preferences; if you happen not to like parsley, for example, then use something else. Basil, marjoram, thyme, and the aforementioned oregano, all work IF that is what you like--could even try fennel seed if you like that.

    • @omegasage777
      @omegasage777 2 года назад +2

      Yes, my mom always adds egg to the ricotta mix and we also use Italian seasoning! It makes a huge difference

    • @richardwallace6313
      @richardwallace6313 2 года назад +2

      @@omegasage777 of course Italian seasoning does not exist in Italy and is a foreign concept to Italian cooks. Each dish takes a specific mix of spices, perhaps basil, perhaps thyme, oregano, or parsley, etc., or a mix of spices. Italian seasoning is like curry powder, an invention of outsiders.

    Deb, you are my hero. I found your blog when I was just a teenager and the first thing I made was the Grasshopper Cake and it was a SMASH! Everybody loved it, my friends thought I was some kind of baking genius. That was nearly 10 years ago, now so many of your recipes are in my everyday arsenal when preparing meals for my family. And I wanted to say - thank you!
    Lots of love from Estonia!

    I have made this a few times, and I typically use Barilla noodles. I find the noodles come out quite gummy even after baked! I now boil them for five minutes. Just in case anyone else uses that brand, thought this might help. 😊

    • @squisitissima2810
      @squisitissima2810 2 года назад +4

      Are you using the Barilla no boil ones or the regular pasta? The no boil noodles are great if you haven't tried them.

    • @susandaniel8075
      @susandaniel8075 Год назад +3

      I use them also. Instead of using hot water from the tap, I heat up water so that it is very hot in a tea kettle--not boiling, but almost. I find this works better than just hot water.

    @carolresco4452 Год назад +1

    Just made this with all the vegetables from my Oregon garden: chard instead of spinach, zucchini, green and poblano peppers, walla walla onions, crookneck squash and japanese eggplants. Only problem? I didn't watch the math carefully. My box of lasagna noodles only had 16; for this recipe, you need 20 noodles for the 5 layers. At the end I just crammed all the leftover, ricotta, veggies, sauce onto the top before adding the final layer of noodles but it came out delicious. There was some overflow of sauce so the tray underneath definitely came in handy to avoid oven mess. And it is not dry nor soggy but nice consistency. Loved it as did my family.

    Love the recipe. It's been a couple years so you might have corrected it, but the teaspoon of oregano looked like a quarter. I trained myself to eyeball it by measuring a tsp of a seasoning, usually salt, into my hand every time I needed one for a recipe, and I still do it every now and then to give myself a refresher. I feel like I need the reminder because it really looks like a lot once it starts piling up in the hand and it can make you start using less and less.

    Deb - 2 cheesy questions: so, dry-packed mozzarella - the fresh white stuff or the more yellow block from the deli counter? And, can I sub goat cheese for the ricotta.? We have problems with ricotta in this household! You’re the best!

    • @smittenkitchening
      @smittenkitchening  2 года назад

      I use dry-packed, i.e. not in water. From a deli counter or fridge aisle. I haven't subbed goat cheese before so I can't say for sure. I'm sure it will be delicious but of course stronger in flavor; up to you if you'd like to use less.
