The Best CLASSIC Lasagna Recipe (with EASY homemade ricotta)

[@deborahsimmons2414]

Once again, a beautiful, tasty and..now beloved recipe!!! I made this yesterday, I am 67 years old and not so spry, it took me longer than I expected…because of my age, I move much slower…BUT…in all my years of making all kinds of Italian dishes, including lasagne, this was absolutely superb! Brian is my primo chef, every recipe that he puts out and I try has been a roaring success! I CANNOT go wrong with him…it’s simply impossible…unlike many, MANY other so called chefs on YT! Because of my age, the next time I make his recipe, I will make the meat sauce the day before the rest. The only thing I did differently was to add freshly chopped parsley, (1/4 cup), and fresh basil, (1/4 cup), I split the cheese from just Parmesan to 1/2 parm and 1/2 pecorino Romano, then I added 2 eggs instead of one to the ricotta recipe…that’s it. Everything else was verbatim to his recipe. The end result was more magnificent than anything else I have ever made before! My husband could not stop raving about it! This is why I subscribe to his channel! Everything he puts out from corned beef cabbage, to egg salad sandwiches has always been just delightfully delicious!!!! I LOVE Brian’s palate and his sensitivity to meat dishes as well as…OKAY…everything else. He is, in my opinion the culmination of what makes a great Chef!!! Thank you Brian…you deserve much more notoriety than this “humble commentor can give!

I made this recipe after work this week and let me just say: This was easily the greatest lasagna I’ve ever eaten. The homemade ricotta was amazing, the texture of the noodles was spot on, the fresh mozzarella on top was a game changer, the Italian sausage added so much depth and the sauce was incredible. It took me from the time I got home from work to my bed time (about 5 hours) to complete the entire recipe for me (an average home cook). If you are not too experienced I recommend doing this on the weekend. Every single step is 100% worth it. I generally alter recipes to make them my own but this is the first time I can confidently say that this recipe is PERFECTION. I normally am not too excited about lasagna but this version was so good. Thank you Brian!

[@MRSketch09]

So my question, were you able to find the noodles he mentioned, or did you have to wing it?

[@prattesrus]

@@MRSketch09 I could not find the no boil noodles, so I used regular and soaked them in water for 5 minutes. Seemed to work very well!

I gotta say, as an Italian i'm enthralled with your recipes, especially the pizzas, to me its fascinating how you manage to be so pragmatic and at times, especially with this Lasagna, be so creative and novel in regards to undying classic dishes like this one, excellent content.

[@stefanopassa7027]

If you want the sauce sweeter instead of sugar grate in some carrots in the begining. That makes the sauce sweeter, smoother, thicker.

[@DarkAquaVII]

Absolutely right! ❤

[@sahej6939]

Yes, I would use carrots or thick carrot 🥕 juice

[@exilio2690]

Made it. In my official rotation. Been trying to find a lasagna recipe that ticked all the boxes and this was it. FOLLOW THE RECIPE. Don't go rogue. Wife and father, both Italian, loved it. Although it spurred a furious debate with the wife about the correct pronunciation of ricotta; she was wrong. Brian, you really do something interesting...you bring in some obvious next level (pro) techniques and I feel it teaches me not only how to cook something that tastes good (what my family wants) but also teaches me some serious skills I can apply to other dishes (what I want). Please keep it up. Great stuff, sir.

[@digvag7648]

Yesterday i went to my italian pasta maker shop, bought some homemade lasagna sheets, a beautiful triangle of Parmesan, some ricotta without gums & additives (i'll make it myself another time, i donlt have the requested thin fabric), some grounded pork.... And man, these are all in my hot oven at the moment... The smell is divine... And tonight's dinner is gonna be just fine. Thank you a lot for sharing all of these wonderful receipes ❤

[@mikemento5617]

Made this last night for my family and it was hands down the best Lasagna I’ve ever had. This lasagna is very structurally sound and has a good bite to it where most others end up overly soft and mushy. Just an FYI for anyone making this, it does take a long time especially for the average home cook. I spent about 4-5 hours making it.

[@riding4life810]

Just made this tonight for my family. Absolutely amazing! The homemade ricotta was so amazing! Won’t buy store bought again. The flavor was amazing! 10/10 Bri! I’ve tried most of your recipes and they never disappoint. Your dedication to get the recipe right before you post a video is what sets you apart from other food KZbinrs. Keep it up!

[@yatessnyder1490]

I appreciate your videos so much you have no idea! You're taking me from a bland home cook to making some seriously tasty stuff for me and my girlfriend. Also the fact that you add in tid-bits explaining why you use one thing over another really helps me understand what the ingredients are doing for the dish. Thanks a ton!!

[@jonathanflanagan1504]

Got to try making lasagna yesterday and followed this recipe as much as I could. Despite missing some ingredients, and this being the first time I've ever tried making lasagna ever, this was the best lasagna I've ever had.

[@deathbycookies]

made this today, was the best lasagna i ever had, added a layer of fresh basil on top below the layer of sliced mozz. was perfect.

[@David34981]

There aren't many things that are traditional Italian about this, but at the same time it's a great and practical recipe for everyone. Thanks.

[@bierbrauer11]

You’ve really won me over! Appreciate you not trying to hit whatever is trendy but rather demonstrate your version of a solid classic. Did the beef stew and I must say that recipe is fire! Looking forward to trying this one!

[@50sKid]

I always hated “American” lasagne growing up because of the grainy texture of supermarket ricotta, and then I learned that a real lasagne Bolognese is made with béchamel and I’ve loved that version ever since, made with real bolognese sauce and spinach pasta sheets. And…then I learned that putting ricotta in a lasagne isn’t actually just an American thing because the Neapolitan lasagne has it! That one is made with chunks of sausage and sliced meatballs with a Neapolitan ragu and real ricotta, and it’s frickin delicious. I do wish we would learn to make them the right way. That being said, the fact that you made your own ricotta makes this “mom” version something I would totally scarf. Can’t do the gritty stuff!

[@PM-oe5mk]

If you use whole milk ricotta you won't get that gritty texture. It's hard to find whole milk ricotta at the regular grocery, but Whole Foods does carry it.

[@veronicaBolanos-mc4fc]

I agree with that American version ricotta. The texture isn't too appealing

[@50sKid]

@@PM-oe5mk depends on the brand though

[@Heymrk]

All "Italian food" originated in the USA. Grainy lasagna is likely the original way it was made by poor Italian immigrants in NYC and Boston, only later to be refined by high-end chefs into something more.

[@50sKid]

@@Heymrk Italy has a culture that dates back thousands of years 🤦‍♂️

[@walk2000]

Made this last night with 3 French baguettes and a boule. Like all of your recopies that I have made it was easy and very good. I was skeptical about the ricotta but now I will never buy it again. Did I mention that it was very good...so good that my vegetarian wife (she wasn't always that way but I still love her) ate half of my first piece. The only good thing about that is that when I had a second piece I had hot French baguette with butter to eat it with.

[@shawnanwo]

After taking notes and watching this video a few times, I made this today...And WOW! Even my very picky 6 year old loved it!! My wife said, "That was the best lasagna I have ever had!" I followed this recipe 100%. Including making the ricotta. I'm honestly a little bummed the ricotta came out so amazing because there is no going back. It was worth the hour it took to make it. I will probably use this meat sauce recipe for other pasta dishes going forward because it was spot on! Thanks, Brian, for all the work and sharing it with everyone, the way you simplify things and make them easily repeatable is amazing. I even made your grilled chicken breast recipe for lunch today for the second time and it was perfect like the first.

[@marissasantucci]

[@adamh1228]

meat particle size makes such a difference, i started putting my meat in a little food processor i have to take it down to the size of aquarium gravel consistently, and it makes so much of a difference

[@ethansiew61]

I have gotten a similar result by cooking the beef on low while stirring (to break it up into small bits that don't clump) before turning the heat up to finish. If I have time, I will lower the heat afterwards and continue to cook the beef until it is fully browned and crusty.

[@ryanp6999]

My family, we're from Milan, made lasagna with both Béchamel and ricotta cheese, and only added mozzarella on the top layer. Still the best I've ever had.

[@bohemiansusan2897]

I've been making something close for about 20 years or so. I adjusted the recipe to suit a whole foods diet. I use whole wheat lasagna noodles. I add a bit of chicken broth to the first layer of sauce and then lay noodles down. I layer without thinning the sauce and finally cover it in foil or a lid to cook. Another 15-20 minutes uncovered and it can rest a bit before serving.

I'm not a meat sheet guy just yet. I start browning in a 7qt Dutch oven. Add onions then prep garlic while it cooks. Add garlic. Finish cooking then add celery, bell pepper and a few jalapeños. Once soft, add all the seasoning, tomato stuff and red wine.

[@Kingbudman]

Made this recipe for the first time today. It is so good, best lasagna I have ever made. The only things I did differently was added mushrooms and 1-2 Tbsp of Italian seasoning into the sauce. 10/10 would recommend everyone to make.

Finally! A no-boil lover! It doesn’t matter if I am making it at home for myself or making a $265 portioned tray for a restaurant I am using no-boil! And I’m glad I watched to the very end, I’m a sauce fiend! Love that extra helping of sauce 🤤

[@jessywanders8829]

My mom never used ricotta or cottage cheese. She just used any cheese she had on hand. I always loved it! I need to try this version though.

[@amandahuginkiss6868]

Just finished making this dish. I have never made cheese (intentionally) from milk / cream, but I did not have issues when following your directions. Have also never made lasagna before, so doing the layers was another learning experience. Used (coincidentally) Barilla GF no boil noodles. Worked out well. Didn't have all the right amounts of mozzarella (made due with some Romano, Parm, and Jack (just a little)), or the same sized baking dish, but if you roll with it, you can probably make this work. Crisped up well, although it resembles a topographical map of Turkmenistan, but the taste is what matters: when my people ask for seconds, I know I have a winner. Thanks B Man.

[@Matando]

This is almost identical to the lasagna my mom and grandmother (and in turn myself) make. We use a regular sauce instead of meat sauce(although I prefer the meat sauce) and store bough ricotta. Everything else is the same. Also, you can just use regular "boil" lasagna without boiling or even soaking it. Just put it in dry it'l come out the same as the no boil ones.

[@harvest_dragon6115]

I cook a lot and to be honest, lasagna always intimidated me. So for a Valentine surprise to my husband I made your lasagna for him after watching you a dozen times lol. The ricotta came out perfect, I also tasted it with the raw egg too, but I got my egg freshly layed an hour before I made it so no worries there. Absolutley delicious! I am a neat cook, oh no, not today... after 3 hours, and 2 huge dogs under my feet (unusually beautiful day in VT, and they are inside, but love to be outdoors) in a lil kitchen waiting for cheese or anything to hit the floor. Hubby approved he said, "Was the best he has ever had"! The lasagna gets an A+ with me for sure. The only issue I had was I think my pan was a bit larger, could have used more ricotta and the only noodles I could find were shorter in length so had an inch gap on both sides. And when I make it again (it is so worth it) I will shred all my cheeses the night before & maybe do ricotta then as well. Your lasagna recipe is "Superb" no surprise there! Thank you!

[@ilikegrapes5769]

For those who don't know: When you use quality tomatoes, you need sugar for balance. You don't want to go for a "sweet sauce", adding sugar should take the acidic level to a more palatable state; little at a time and taste as you go, you will notice the difference.

[@patrickfuller1806]

Looks really good. I like to make my ricotta with lemon juice instead of vinegar. I like the citrus tones and it goes well with any tomato based applications.

[@kate8160]

Sincerely, thank you for this recipe! It just works!! I googled what to substitute ricotta with, since I don’t have it in store nearby here. It turned out amazing, literally the first time in my life I succeeded in this, and I appreciate that I never have to have a store bought lasagna again 😊❤

[@sunny020388]

In India we make Paneer in a similar way just like ricotta, you can use that whey water to kneed the dough and make Roti or Naan with that dough. Cheers ✌🏻

[@carbonatedmilk5934]

I did not realize it was so easy to make ricotta at home. I just made a fresh batch of dough for pizza (thanks, it's good stuff) but as soon as we eat all the pizza I'm definitely trying this one next. Looks delicious.

[@kimfurnell7902]

I add diced carrots and celery to my sauce, and definitely you’ve got to reduce it down! I’ve never made my own ricotta, but I will once I’m making lasagna this fall. I also like to sneak veggies into the ricotta mixture. I’ll grate zucchini or even blanch baby spinach and cut it up. Thanks for the info!

[@nicokuhne3255]

i'm always with you, this recipe is probably great too, but no need to bad mouth bechamel sauce. It's the best !!!

[@reinori8322]

Very similar to what I have come to make - I am sure yours is wonderful. I love your show, you have never let me down. Something you might want to try is using lemon juice for the ricotta, then you can use the whey to add a little protein and lemon zip to the next loaf of bread you make. It works especially with a sweeter bread like challah.

[@eronavbj]

My mom made lasagna every Sunday. It was a recipe from my Naples-native grandmother, and the process took hours. It’s the same process that my wife and I have used for years. It’s quite a job, so we make it far less often than we used to. Your recipe may just get us back to a more frequent Sunday afternoon lasagna. Grazie!

[@karenfox1671]

Thanks again on the ricotta tutorial. AND, Congratulations on reaching 800K!!!!!!! Go and celebrate!

[@bindak]

Super excited this uses no-boil noodles. Happens that I stocked up from back in the Covid days. Made the lasagna today! (It’s still in the oven) Read that it took people five hours (!). Unsure if this includes cook time? It took me three hours for prep and cleanup. Plus an hour in the oven, and half hour to cool. So total 4.5 hours. Could have made it four hours had I been a hair more organized. 🤷🏻‍♀️ NOTES * I ended up adding sugar to the sauce because it was a little one dimensional * super helpful if you mise en place and have everything ready to go, i.e., grate all cheeses at the same time * using a scale saves on number of utensils used 😄 * I used a tea towel to strain the ricotta and it was fine

[@lindasmariga5458]

I just made this tonight, along with the garlic bread from a previous episode (really just the garlic spread, not the bread). It took 3 hours exactly from start to plate. I made the ricotta, which was pretty crazy considering i have only ever used store bought before. It smelled pretty vinegary after first draining but the smell went away after letting it drip in the fridge (into a pot) while i made the other things. My sausage stuck to the pan, i guess i should have foiled or sprayed it. My sauce was delicious. I added an extra sausage because i bought a pack of 5 and figured if 2 was good, 3 would be better. 3 made it a little too sausagey. I think 2 is definitely the sweet spot. I wont go off-roading again. The lasagna just straight up bangs, sausagey or not. It was great. The garlic bread sauce was nice too and the recipe made a shitload so i have some left for another loaf. So far i have made bri's artisan bread, baguettes, street tacos, chocolate chip cookies, apple galette and now this lasagna. Probably a few more. It's all been great. Looking forward to the next.

[@homeforfjfonderie2865]

Made it! Delicious! It took a loooooong time (5h+), but it yielded 2 meals for 4 ppl. Kids ate it too, and that's saying something! And now I remember why I order this dish at an Italian restaurant, it's just too time intensive. But if it's not a "special" day, I'm stuck cooking at home since hubby and I switched to a mostly keto diet; therefore I modded to a very low carb version: made my own keto-pasta by mixing eggs with collagen and a bit of salt, fry up with ghee into flapjacks. It worked out fabulously on the evening of, but also when re-heated 2 days later.

Kiddo wanted Italian for Christmas so I had him make this today with some roasted veggies and garlic bread. This was awesome. So easy, a teenager can do it.

I always use dry uncooked noodles and most often *gasp* jar sauces! The noodles cook in the sauce in the oven and absorb the extra liquid. I don't soak or anything. Emeril told me to use the dry noodles, and it works out well. Good cheese is definitely very important I must say.

[@WastedTalent-]

I haven't boiled lasagna noodles since the late 80's when I was a kid and read Dom DeLuise's book, "Eat This, It'll Make You Feel Better." It's his mother's recipes and she didn't boil lasagna noodles. I was 10 years old and learned to cook from my grandmother. That book is great with easy recipes.

For a meaty bolognese I use a pressure cooker with some bones (including marrow), and beef chuck. 35 mins, depressurise, pick out meat, use two forks to tear apart, whisk the marrow in the sauce. Let cool 10-15 mins before assembling lasagna.

[@nadastankovic5245]

Hi Chef, I’m going to try your method of making lasagna with no boil pasta. I’m in Canada and we have different products but I’m sure it will be good but not like yours. I just love the technique you used and much easier than when I make fresh pasta sheets at home and more work involved. One thing I have not mastered is making meat sauce less watery. I believe it’s the tomatoes that carry the water. I use tomatoes called Mutti brand which are San Marzano here in Canada and not cheap and still comes out watery so I’m going to try making it your way in oven. Thank you and you’re a talented Chef.

Using a nut bag instead of cheese cloth is so much easier, I make lactose free ricotta often for my wife. The nut bag fits easily over a pitcher, has a sting in it to hang it to drain, can be reused and more importantly the cheese comes off easier from the bag. I use a brand called fair life or lactaid both work great, you don't need the heavy cream either. Last hint save some of the whey water, like a 1/2 cup, to rehydrate your ricotta if it dries out or you drain it for too long.

@NaCh3074 I won't be buying ricotta anymore! The lasagna was soooo delicious. A lot of prep but worth it, and most of it can be done the day before anyways! 🅰️➕️

I used this recipe to make lasagna foe the first time. Used half of the ingredients to make the dish, and other half (ricotta and ground beef) for two more meals that week

I love this technique! I always soak my noodles for like 5 minutes and it always turns out perfect! Thanks for sharing Brian ♥️
