I had chemo back in 2004 and I went through a phase that everything I ate had a metal taste, until a friend brought me a pan of lasagna. The tomato sauce blocked the metal taste and I ate lots of Italian food for several months thereafter. I was so grateful for Italian food.

For a better option to sugar in your sauce, use a pinch or two of baking soda to neutralize a little of the acidity in the tomatoes. This is a fantastic option for people watching their sugars or those who don't like Americanized sweet tomato sauce.

When the recipe says 3 garlic cloves, I go with 7. A man definitely after my own heart. Go

I made this for Mother's Day for my wife and WOW, it turned out perfect! In fact, the ingredient ratios for a 9"x13"dish were just enough to meet the pan height without it spilling over in the oven. I split it into 8 servings, each one a meal unto itself. All my portion slices held together wonderfully because I used John's recommendation to let it rest 30+ minutes (I let it go about 45 minutes and it was still warm and delicious). I can't thank you enough for making Sunday dinner a big hit this year, John! Thanks for making such a great channel and being a great cooking teacher! :)

A hack I learned was to make smaller lasagna by assembling in loaf pans. Right now, it's just me and my mom, and the large lasagnas we made would mostly go to waste. Make one for supper, freeze the rest, bake the others later.

What I want to know is how does John not have his own cooking show on TV? He’s much better at explaining things, more entertaining and more relatable to the average person than these “super star chefs”

My son requested lasagna for Father's Day. I made the sauce the day before and put it in a slow cooker on low overnight. I put the lasagna together before church and put it in the oven at 225 F until after church, 3 hours later, and it was fabulous!!! It wasn't over cooked and it held together perfectly! I make my sauce and ricotta mixture similar to yours. I didn't have any Italian sausage which would have made it even better!! I love to watch you cook and have made several of your recipes which are a-maz-ing!!!!

I made this recipe and it is 100% the best dish I have ever made. The measurements were exactly as they should be . I couldn’t make this more delicious if I tried. The dried basil adds a depth of flavor and I did end up adding red pepper flakes like you said. Thank you so much for this wonderful lasagna recipe! ❤

Can I just say that your commentary while cooking is just the best! I just loved your information about the pewter dishes.

I can never resist those bubbling blobs of cheese when the lasagna is fresh out the oven. Yummers! 😋

My girlfriend made this recipe last night and it was PERFECT. Super simple to follow and the final product was delicious. We will definitely make this again in the near future !

This was my first time making lasagna and you made it so easy to make. Plus it came out delicious!! Everyone loved it! Thank you! 🫶🏽

In my family we usually love :

extra virgin olive oil for the "soffritto" (i usually cook carrots, celery and onions in it)

A little bit of white wine before adding your tomato sauce

Bechamel sauce

Mozzarella

a little bit of parmigiano cheese on top to get that delicious crust
