What Vincenzo says, at least here in Argentina are not called macaroni but "Coditos" (obviously 100% made up here).

​@@vincenzosplate it really is. For example, there is a concept of "lazy dish" in Ukrainian, Polish, maybe some other Slavic cuisines. Like lazy dumplings and lazy pierogis, lazy spring rolls. You know, to make dumplings, you need to shape them, and rolls, well, gotta roll them. "Lazy" technique just removes the manual labor part from the dish, while keeping the same ingredients in it. And these "lazy" dishes are still delicious in their own way. Following this logic, lazy lasagna would be just a Bolognese pasta with some cheeses on top, lol, but what's the point then in calling a pasta lazy lasagna? I think, there maybe is no such concept as lazy dish in Italian cuisine, right? Or correct me if I am wrong. In Ukrainian cuisine, there is a main dish, and a derivative lazy dish variant may be developed from it in some cases.

[@Makingnewnamesisdumb]

The assumption he's making with this recipe is that if you just combine all of the same ingredients together in a big pile it will taste the same as cooking the dish correctly. Sometimes this approach can work, like with sushi with most types of rolls with uncooked ingredients if you just put a scoop or slice of each ingredient in a bowl and mix it up and eat it with a spoon it will taste basically the same. The problem in this case is the way that lasagna is layered and browned differently throughout the lasagna plays a huge role in what makes it lasagna. You're not going to get that using different kinds of pasta and cheeses all mixed up.

"SC-al-FANI" is his surname. Possibly a deformation of the common Sicilian name "Sclafani." Perhaps an explanation for the "macaroni/penne" conundrum?

I'm actually going to try your lasagne recipe soon and honestly, this video makes me happy because even if I utterly destroy it, it will never turn out as badly as that mess. Those kids will think they don't like lasagne when in fact it's the food of the gods.

I'm not even Italian, I'm half German and Half British (but love and eat a lot of Italian food) and this is so painful to watch. Vincenzo probably needs therapy after seeing this.

[@CraigLarson77]

Also, to answer your question of why people post these videos... I think it's simply because many people would rather take the fast lane to getting many views... it's harder to take time and present useful skills and tips because that audience takes time to cultivate and keep the attention of.. but, the followers of that kind of content will be smarter and better informed... so, be proud of your audience - as I'm sure you are. You're one of the few I actually watch KZbin for...

@@vincenzosplate he choked out his son on a few occasions. Aside from that, he's sent his disgusting food to soldiers (freeze dried thanksgiving dinner) and fed rotten meat to his church group. But now you've seen his worst sin, giving his "lasagna" to school children 😂 Btw, I watched your real lasagna video last night, gonna make it but I'm going to try my hand at homemade ricotta. Been making my own pasta for a while now so don't worry, I won't use store bought pasta sheets. I'll be deviating from the sauce part though, I'll be making it as a simple tomato sauce with rosemary and anchovy.

1:47 he isn’t Italian, he’s American. Why does he lie? Maybe an ancestor ate a pizza once. He crawled out from Aunt Myrna’s primordial soup.

[@Philbert-s2c]

There's really no such thing as an "American." There are dozens of countries in the "Americas" and even in one nation state like the United States there are hundreds of ethnicities and 50 States...each one of which are totally different from the others. Canada for instance which is more homogenous than the US is still divided along cultural lines between Indigenous, English and French cultures.

[@Sparkypark]

@ as understood by the whole world, Americans are definitely those from the continental USA. Everyone else is Canadian, Mexican etc. should we call them United Statesians?

[@angiebrown2508]

You know Jack's food is safe when he isn't using meat. With how Jack cooks his meat, I might consider myself a vegetarian around him. To answer your question, Sometimes people watch bad cooking shows because it makes them feel better about themselves. Another reason to watch shows like Jacks cooking, is just hate watching in general.

[@vincenzosplate]

Better he doesn't use meat then 😂😂

[@Killerean]

When cooking turns in to a war crime. :D

[@vincenzosplate]

This is totally a war crime ahah

[@pist0lpete11]

Crazy as it may seems, this is probably one of Jack’s better recipes. Maybe you should make more reaction video from Jack. His library of crappy recipes are endless.

12:45 That's no pasta. That's a recipe for a heart attack.

Honestly this is a lot better than anything he does with chicken. Jack seems to be unable to cook chicken thoroughly. One Jack video the chicken is severely under cooked and he calls it juicy.

I’m with Vincenzo on this, I’m Italian and this angers me beyond believe. Maybe I am a food snob, thats fair ….. but dont call this garbage Lasagna,maybe call it shit in a pot.

[@vincenzosplate]

Very well said! That is why it is important for us to keep everyone informed about recreating dishes like this. We do not want to spend so much time on something that does not even taste great.

[@deemagico]

you should see Jacks chilly for the church meeting 😂

[@vincenzosplate]

😂😂🙈🙈

[@marugg78]

You should watch Jack's church chili video. He used a cooked brisket that he kept in the freezer for over a year. That thing looked green. And yes, he took it to a church chili cook-off. Thank you for the tip of adding pasta water to the ricotta. I always wondered why it never melted.

[@vincenzosplate]

I think I'll set aside Jack's contents for now, it's scaring me.

Bolognese and Lasagna take quite some time and effort to make them right. But trust me, it's worth it. I love Lasagna, especially for lunch during a Formula 1 race.

My Bolognese cooks 8 hours on the first day then cools completly down and the next day i cook them even lower and slower for another 4 Jours everything melts like a cloud in your mouth

A little addon! Here in Sweden food is at the moment horribly expensive. If you can't afford the good cheeses You might wanna consider Grana Padano for your daily pasta dishes.

lol, this is almost the exact way we made baked ziti when i worked at a Sbarro chain in Minnesota. we added Ramano cheese as well, and then "baked" it in a steam cabinet with plastic film over it. we used ziti noodles though, and made the sauce from scratch each morning... at first.. right before i quit, they moved to a bagged sauce..... it was pretty good, with garlic bread sticks made from leftover over proofed pizza dough. (that was made from scratch each morning, the best part of the food there.) i still remember the recipe for the dough too, even after over 20 years... if i want to use 50 pounds of flour....

My mom's Cajun and she will use jar sauce as a STARTER. She then adds more stuff to it and cooks it for another 6 hours.

[@marcies3789]

Jack is always very confused about what to call his dishes. This is not lasagna, this has nothing to do with lasagna. This is baked ziti, an American casserole dish. I mean, I'm sure it tastes fine if his ingredients don't suck, particularly that sauce, but he really needs to label things properly.

[@ethancoover2282]

It seems a lot of cooking KZbinrs (I won't dare say chef because Jack doesn't deserve to be called a chef) have this issue. Like Jaime Oliver's Vegetable lasagna - if he just called it a vegetable casserole no one would have gotten mad and he would've been fine.
