Post a controversial opinion

Sorry man it's as impersonal as these emotional daggers to the heart can be

So glad I persevered with Shub Niggurath.

Actually, I don't think I would have finished more than 5 films if I bailed the minute I got bored. They probably weren't my favorite films either.

Bechamel ruins lasagna.

Agreed!

I find it weird and necessary in it.

I get so angry when I order lasagna or someone makes it for me and it has bechamel in it. Granny vomit.

cheese sauce is better true

not controversial imo, béchamel is awful, ruins what it touches and I'm glad it's fallen out of favor in contemporary French cooking.

People put sauce *on* lasagna? If the top is properly browned, that's all that matters. The sauce is within, young Padawan.

The only place I expect to find bechamel is on a croque-monsieur, where it is unnecessary, but canonical.

It's still all over France/UK and in South America lasagnas.

The sauce is in the layers of lasagna. And on top.

meat sauce, bechamel/cheese sauce, lasagne, repeat

I made lasagne a week ago and looking up recipes one of them had bechamel and I was like “what the hell”

It’s in the bottom layer of Britisher lasagna too (which I like) but I also like the ricotta layer so do both.

I have never made a lasagna with bechamel but it's all I can find already made outside of the US (besides Italy).

idk if it's controversial but the tendency for lasagna to be served with chips (fries whatever) in the UK always struck me as really weird.

I just wasn’t gonna make two sauces as a lasagne prerequisite when ricotta exists

I kind of would like it left out of croque -monsieurs too. I always forget about it and am like wtf is this soggy mess.

Me too, but UK greasy spoons offer chips with any main.

people like lasagne, people like chips :)

tbf it's cheaper for pubs to bulk out your inadequate portion of lasagne with some chips

It's still all over France/UK and in South America lasagnas.

Romantic lasagnwiches

x-post - No, you're right. And I'm not going to lie and say that I didn't enjoy the hell out of that combo on at least one very hungover afternoon but I still think it's hilarious.

If they served lasagna with a scotch egg in the UK I would eat that every day.

It's just not something you'd ever see here. Garlic bread smothered in cheese yes but not fries.

Every day until u died (Thursday week)

should know better than to get into these kinds of threads when i won't be home for at least another couple of hours

lasagna should have a red sauce imo

yes & that's one reason why spinach lasagna is generally an abomination

is lasagne a cheeseburger y/n?

They have both! That's is why it's disgusting. It's a hidden layer sometimes. Like suddenly finding clam chowder in your lasagna without the clams.

marcos is right. Noodle / tomato sauce / cheese. I guess sausage is okay but I don't miss it if it's not there.

As an Italian-American, I find this whole conversation revolting and upsetting.

i've enjoyed lasagna w/ sausage and w/ spinach but in all cases they've had a red sauce. ricotta cheese is nice. not a fan of creamy sauce lasagnas

Moodles, you are an Italian mad at food?

LOL

there’s at least two women in this latest thread revive posting about something other than a man so it comfortably passes the bechamel test iirc

O commemorate me where there is pasta
Sheeted pasta, preferably, creamy-cheesy with a heart of sausage
O brother! Commemorate me thus beautifully.

FP bizzarro

that twitter account is the only thing that ever gets me to check twitter

I only make lasagna with bechamel

Why the fuck are you sitting down to eat a hunk of ricotta

In my lasagne, there is cheese: thin layers of parmesan betwixt, and a healthy snowfall on top

But that's it

I even make a kind of super-light margarita lasagna, that is, tomato sauce, basil and béchamel, six-to-eight layers, very shallow and very satisfying

Ricotta is a dessert cheese

DISGUSTING

xp

FPed you

I actually also dislike cannollis and ricotta cheesecake so I never see ricotta as a dessert.

I mean I sorta agree that ricotta is the grossest thing about lasagna but replacing it with béchamel ? what is this world coming to

if i remember correctly italian lasagna does have bechamel, it kind of doesn't work without it?

no idea why it is being poured on top though

to continue with the italian food bashing however

italians eating their salads last messes with my mind so much

it kind of goes against everything i know about food

I was vvv disappointed that the margarita lasagne was not a jaggeresque cocktail

Ricotta is awful.

South American and France I know eat their salad last too.

I love ricotta. I like it in eggs. Fluff!

we eat our salad last at home (south american ancestry living in france so...)
