    Can substitute whipped cream cheese for robiolina cheese. You may use the Italian sausage Bolognese recipe on p. 114, and the Northern-style egg yolk pasta recipe on p. 147.

    This was a tooooon of work but it made such an amazing looking dish! It was pretty delicious too! Tho i’m not sure if i’d make it unless i’m trying to impress a crowd. Tho definitely would suggest to make this dish.

    A ton of work but very very good and so fun! If I made it again I’d double (or triple!) and freeze. My husband says the robiolina is worth it, even though it was crazy pricey and tricky to find.

    Whew. A lot of work for sure. All components can be done in advance, which worked well. I mistakenly did not put cut sides down when it came to baking as I figured everything would slide--they did not. As a result, I added an additional 20 mins of cooking time as the pasta just didn't look done. After 25 min., it was still fairly bland looking so I basted the exposed pieces with olive oil when I dropped in the whipped cream cheese (which worked fine) and it browned up nicely. I have made a lot of lasagnas in my lifetime, and my husband pronounced this the "lightest" ever and a definite repeat. Overall, would be great for a crowd. I used Cucina Fresca store-bought lasagna sheets. After fretting over the size of the sheets (longer/narrower), I just went with what I had and it worked great.

    What a beauty of a recipe. I made a double batch and that was a great choice, because I could share some with friends. They said it was the best they'd ever had and their child deemed it, "The best lasagna of their life... from a restaurant... in Italy," so while I don't like to brag, it truly is worth the joy of the process and worth the stellar results. I did have to sub out the whipped cream cheese as robiolina isn't readily available.

    This was very delicious. Couldn't find robiolina cheese, but used cream cheese without issue. All the component recipes were great with the exception of the pasta dough, which was difficult to work work. Would use a different pasta recipe next time.
