Hi Mark, I understand your concern, but there are no alternative to the cheeses in this recipe. You can always change the type of cheese, but there will be a big difference in the final result of the dish.

I’m planning to prepare the lasagna in the morning, then serve in the evening…
Is it ok to do the (first) baking with aluminum foil cover in the morning then do the 2nd baking without cover in the evening, just in time for dinner?
Will this 5-6 hour gap affect the result? Or I really have to do the 2nd baking immediately after the first?
Thank you so much! I really love your recipes. It’s always perfect!
mapi says
hi sir!
question po. I have a small baking dish (8x11 lang) and I want to try your recipe. If I use just half of the ingredients, do I need to adjust the baking time also or pareho lang po? thank you so much. 🙂

Hi apple, I also do that and the Mornay sauce when I cook basic lasagna. It’s just that my taste buds are longing for something different and I found the taste that I like in this recipe.
apple says
hello,,i did’nt know that you can use ricotta cheese to make bechamèl sauce or the white sauce..usually we use flour,butter,milk,nutmeg and a pinch of salt..with no sugar on it,,
