Lasagna Bolognese

An authentic, slow-cooked Italian Lasagna Bolognese made completely from scratch. It features layers of rich beef and pork ragu, creamy homemade bechamel sauce, and fresh hand-rolled pasta sheets, baked to a perfect golden-brown finish. Chef's tips: (1) Simmering the ragu for at least 4 hours is essential to break down the collagen in the meat and achieve a rich flavor. (2) Adding milk in stages to the ragu helps tenderize the meats and neutralizes the harsh acidity of the tomato paste. (3) Be sure to place plastic wrap directly touching the surface of the hot bechamel to prevent a tough skin from forming as it cools. (4) Boil the fresh pasta sheets in batches to avoid them sticking together, and dry them flat on clean kitchen towels.
