Lasagne alla Bolognese
Directions
- 1Start browning the meat (beef flank, diaphragm, and pork belly) little by little, making space for each batch to ensure good browning.
- 2Add the soffritto (onion, celery, and carrot) after the meat has browned to absorb the meat's flavors.
- 3Raise the heat again and add the rest of the meat.
- 4Deglaze with a glass of Barbera wine and add two spoonfuls of triple tomato concentrate.
- 5Add a drop of tomato passata and a piece of Parmesan crust.
- 6Let the ragù cook for 3 hours.
- 7Adjust the salt gradually.
- 8Add a dash of milk at the end, as Bolognese grandmothers do.
- 9Prepare a simple béchamel by melting butter and adding flour off the heat.
- 10Combine the hot roux with cold milk all at once.
- 11Season the béchamel with salt and freshly grated nutmeg.
- 12Assemble the lasagna: start with a thin layer of ragù to prevent sticking.
- 13Layer with green spinach pasta, ragù, béchamel, and plenty of 30-month Parmigiano cheese (no mozzarella or other cheeses).
- 14Repeat for 5, 6, or even 7 layers.
- 15For the last layer, use only a thin veil of ragù, then lots of Parmigiano and lots of béchamel.
- 16Bake in the oven.
