I love Italian food -- eating it and making it. Do you enjoy it?

Yes I do!  I'm trying to find the perfect lasagna recipe.  I'm doing a lot of research.

Oh, I love lasagne. I make my own noodles as well as the sauce.

Wow.  That's amazing.  I read where lasagne originated in Italy during the Middle Ages.

I had no idea that it was that old! I wonder how the Middle Ages version resembles the lasagne we eat today.

It featured a fermented dough, flattened into a thin sheet, and then cheese was added.  It was eaten with a pointed stick.

You're kidding! So interesting. It sounds more like pizza on a stick than lasagne.

I know.  Later in Naples, they started adding local sausage, small fried meatballs, hard-boiled eggs, ricotta and mozzarella and sauce.  That sounds better to me:)

Ha, me too! Not real sure about the hard-boiled eggs though! LOL
1_Wizard
Yes, I would definitely leave that out of my recipe.
