Steps:
- Up to two days ahead
- Make the Bolognese sauce Pulse onion, carrot, and celery in a food processor until finely chopped.
- Heat olive oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add ground beef, ground pork, pancetta, and vegetables; cook, breaking up ground meat with a spoon, until moisture is almost completely evaporated and meat is well browned, 25-30 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
- Add wine to pot and bring to a boil, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pot, about 2 minutes. Add milk; bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until moisture is almost completely evaporated, 8-10 minutes. Add tomatoes and 2 cups broth; bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, adding water by 1/2-cupfuls if sauce looks dry, until flavors meld and sauce thickens, 2 1/2-3 hours.
- Let sauce cool, then cover and chill at least 12 hours or up to 2 days. (Letting the sauce sit will give it a deeper, richer flavor.)
- Up to one day ahead
- Make the fresh pasta dough Whisk salt and 3 cups flour in a large bowl, make a well in the center, and crack eggs into well. Mix eggs with a fork, then slowly mix in flour until a shaggy dough forms. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead, dusting lightly with flour if sticky, until smooth, about 5 minutes (it will be fairly stiff). Wrap in plastic; let sit until dough holds an indentation when pressed, 1-2 hours.
- Chill dough if you are not rolling it out right away. Bring to room temperature before rolling out, about 1 hour.
- Make the noodles Set pasta maker to thickest setting; dust lightly with flour. Divide dough into 4 pieces. Working with 1 piece at a time and keeping remaining dough wrapped in plastic as you work, flatten dough into a narrow rectangle (no wider than mouth of machine); pass through rollers . Fold dough as needed to fit and run through again. Repeat without folding, adjusting machine to thinner settings after every pass and dusting with flour if sticky, until pasta sheet is 1/16" thick (setting 8 on most machines). Place pasta sheets on a lightly floured surface and cut crosswise into 16 8"-long noodles.
- If making noodles ahead, stack on a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper between each layer. Cover with plastic wrap; chill.
- Make the béchamel Heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until foaming. Add flour and cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Whisk in warm milk, 1/2-cupful at a time. Bring sauce to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, whisking often, until the consistency of cream, 8-10 minutes; add nutmeg and season with salt. Remove from heat, transfer to a medium bowl, and press plastic wrap directly onto surface; let cool slightly. Chill if not using right away.
- Day of
- Reheat the sauces Combine Bolognese sauce and remaining 1 cup broth in a large saucepan over medium heat, and heat until sauce is warmed through.
- Meanwhile, if you made the béchamel ahead of time, heat in a medium saucepan over low heat just until warmed through (you don't want to let it boil).
- Cook the noodles Working in batches, cook fresh lasagna noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water until just softened, about 10 seconds. Remove carefully with tongs and transfer to a large bowl of ice water; let cool. Drain noodles and stack on a baking sheet, with paper towels between each layer, making sure noodles don't touch (they'll stick together).
- Assemble the lasagna Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 13x9" baking dish with butter.
- Spread 1/4 cup béchamel in the prepared baking dish. Top with a layer of noodles, spread over a scant 3/4 cup Bolognese sauce, then 1/2 cup béchamel, and top with 1/4 cup Parmesan. Repeat process 7 more times, starting with noodles and ending with Parmesan, for a total of 8 layers. Place baking dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake lasagna until bubbling and beginning to brown on top, 50-60 minutes. Let lasagna sit 45 minutes before serving.
- Lasagna can be assembled 12 hours ahead. Cover and chill. Let sit at room temperature 2 hours before baking. Cook, covered with foil until the last 20 minutes, then finish cooking uncovered.
RED, WHITE, AND GREEN VEGETABLE "LASAGNE"
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425˚F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Have ready a large bowl filled halfway with ice water.
- In a large bowl, combine the beets, thyme, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Spread the beet mixture on a baking sheet. Roast for 25 minutes, stirring once, or until the beets are tender.
- While the beets are roasting, remove the red stems from the reserved beet greens and discard. Blanch the leaves in the boiling water until they wilt and turn bright green, about 30 seconds. Transfer the greens to the bowl of ice water to cool. Drain the greens and squeeze them to remove any remaining moisture. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. Slowly add the milk, whisking constantly. Add the cayenne, garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a dash of black pepper. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat. Add the semihard and semisoft cheeses and continue whisking until the cheese is completely melted. Set aside.
- Remove the beets from the oven and set them aside. Reduce the oven heat to 375˚F. Butter a 9 × 13-inch baking dish.
- Sprinkle the bread crumbs over the bottom of the baking dish. Place half of the beets on top of the bread crumbs in one overlapping layer. Arrange half of the blue cheese in large chunks on top of the beets. Make a second layer with the remaining beets and blue cheese. Drizzle 1/4 cup of the cheese sauce on top. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Place the beet greens on top of the cheese sauce. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Layer the cauliflower, 1/4 cup cheese sauce, and then the onion confit. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and top with the remaining cheese sauce, spreading it to the edges of the dish and covering any exposed confit.
- Bake, uncovered, for 40 minutes. Let the lasagne sit for at least 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Serve with a generous dollop of Green Bean Pesto.
- Five-Onion Confit
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, shallots, leek, garlic, vinegar, salt, pepper, and sugar and stir. Cook the onion mixture, stirring occasionally, for 45 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking for 15 minutes, or until the onions are soft and brown and reduced to about 1 cup.

Steps:
- Preparation:
- Position the rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 375°F.
- Make the sauce:
- In a large pot over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Add the sausage, onion and 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; cook, breaking up sausage with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add garlic, red-pepper flakes, and tomato paste; cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes more. Add tomatoes (along with their juice) and oregano; bring to a simmer, and cook, breaking up the tomatoes with a wooden spoon until in small pieces, about 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more red-pepper flakes if desired.
- Make the filling:
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine all of the filling ingredients and process until mostly smooth.
- Assemble the lasagna:
- Squeeze the spinach in a paper towel or clean dishcloth until very dry. Transfer to a bowl and season with a pinch of salt.
- Coat baking dish with cooking spray and spread the bottom with 2 cups sauce. Top with a layer of three noodles, then a third of the ricotta mixture (about 1 1/3 cups), and a third of the spinach (about 2/3 cup). Sprinkle with 1 cup grated mozzarella.
- Repeat twice more, skipping the mozzarella on the third layer. Top the lasagna with the remaining sauce. Sprinkle the remaining 2 cups mozzarella in clusters so some of the sauce peeks through.
- Place the baking pan on a rimmed baking sheet. Lightly spray a piece of foil with cooking spray, cover the lasagna, and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until lightly browned and bubbly, about 20 minutes more. Let cool at least 10 minutes before serving.
- DO AHEAD: The sauce can be prepared up to 2 days in advance and refrigerated. The filling can be prepared up to 1 day in advance and refrigerated.
