Conti's Lasagna

Cultural Context

Lasagna is a classic Italian dish that originated in Ancient Greece, but it evolved in Italy, particularly in the regions of Emilia-Romagna and Campania. Traditionally made with layers of pasta, meat, cheese, and sauce, it has become a staple in Italian-American cuisine, often served at family gatherings and celebrations. Today, variations abound globally, with many adapting the recipe to suit local tastes and dietary preferences.
