Lasagna Noodles For 8 Layer Lasagna Recipes

8-LAYER LASAGNA

Steps:

• Place porcini mushrooms in a small bowl with enough warm water to cover; let stand 30 minutes.
• Drain mushrooms. If a more pronounced mushroom flavor is desired, strain liquid through a fine mesh sieve and set aside. Chop mushrooms and set aside.
• Using a piece of kitchen twine, tie together bay leaf, rosemary, thyme, and 2 whole cloves; set aside.
• Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add prosciutto and saute until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add onions, celery, and carrots, reduce heat to medium, and cook until very soft but not brown, about 30 minutes.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 6 tablespoons butter with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add pork and cook until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Transfer pork to vegetable mixture, reserving skillet. Add tomato paste to pork and vegetable mixture and cook 2 minutes. Meanwhile, add Marsala to reserved skillet and bring to a boil, stirring with wooden spoon or spatula, scraping up all the browned bits from bottom of pan. Pour Marsala over pork and vegetable mixture, place saucepan over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Immediately reduce to a simmer and cook until liquid has reduced by one-third, 30 to 45 minutes. Add chicken stock, herb bundle, and mushroom soaking liquid (if using); stir to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and let simmer, partially covered, for 2 hours. Remove from heat, season with salt and pepper; set aside to cool. Remove herb bundle.
• Heat remaining tablespoon olive oil in large skillet over high heat. Add cremini mushrooms and reserved porcinis; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Fold mushrooms into pork mixture; set aside.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with rack in center. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Brush 12 4 1/2-by-2-inch ramekins with melted butter. Place one pasta round in bottom of each ramekin. Top round with 1 teaspoon Parmigiano-Reggiano. Using a 1 1/2 tablespoons scoop, top cheese with 1 scoop of meat mixture, then 2 teaspoons bechamel sauce. Repeat process until you have 8 layers, finishing with pasta; keep in mind you may not need to use all the pork mixture. Top final layer of pasta with bechamel sauce and sprinkle with cheese.
• Transfer ramekins to baking sheet lined with parchment paper and fitted with wire rack. Cover ramekins with parchment-lined foil and bake until sauce is bubbly, about 15 minutes. Remove parchment-lined foil, increase heat to 425 degrees, and continue baking until crisp on top, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand 20 minutes. Serve immediately with extra cheese and meat sauce.

SEVEN LAYER LASAGNA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Cut each of the zucchini in half crosswise and then slice lengthwise into 1/4-inch strips. Toss with 1 tablespoon of the oil and a pinch of salt, and spread on a baking sheet. Cut the portabellas into 1/4-inch strips, and then toss in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and a pinch of salt and place on a separate baking sheet. Roast for 7 to 8 minutes, then flip and roast until tender and starting to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. The portabellas may take a few minutes longer than the zucchini. Cool the vegetables. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
• While the vegetables roast, mix 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, the pepper, nutmeg, ricotta, eggs, basil and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl until well combined.
• Spread 1 1/2 cups of the marinara in the bottom of a baking dish and top with an even layer of uncooked lasagna noodles (about 5). Top the noodles with 1 1/2 cups of the ricotta mixture, spreading as evenly as possible. Evenly distribute half of the roasted veggies over the ricotta and top with 2 cups of the spinach. Add another 1 1/2 cups of marinara and another layer of noodles. Repeat with another 1 1/2 cups ricotta, the other half of the roasted vegetables, half of the mozzarella slices, the remaining 2 cups spinach, 1 1/2 cups of marinara, and then another layer of noodles. For the final layer, spread the remaining 1 1/2 cups ricotta, another layer of noodles, 1 1/2 cups of marinara, the remaining mozzarella slices, and then top with the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan.
• Bake for 1 hour covered with foil. Then remove the foil and bake until bubbly and beginning to brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Rest the lasagna 15 to 20 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Place flour into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment. Mix together yolks and milk in large bowl. Add salt and olive oil. With mixer on low, slowly add egg mixture to flour; mix until well combined. Increase mixer speed to medium and knead until dough pulls away from sides of bowl and is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer dough to work surface lightly dusted with semolina flour and knead until smooth. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 2 hours before rolling, or store in an airtight container, refrigerated, up to 1 day.
• Dust work surface lightly with semolina flour. Divide pasta dough into 16 pieces and flatten each piece with the palm of your hand. Roll each piece of dough through a pasta machine, working from largest setting to smallest setting, passing dough through each setting twice. Using a 4 1/2-inch round cutter, cut pasta sheets into 96 rounds (6 per sheet). Lay pasta rounds on prepared work surface, covered with a damp kitchen towel as you work.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Working in batches, add pasta to boiling water and cook 2 minutes. Drain, and transfer to a baking sheet lined with a kitchen towel, layering kitchen towels between cooked pasta.
