Lasagna alla Bolognese

This classic lasagna is built from a hearty slow-cooked meat sauce, a creamy white sauce, fresh pasta and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. The elements are layered in the pan, but their flavors come together as the lasagna bakes. This dish is surprisingly delicate when made with fresh spinach pasta.
