This incredible lasagna is made with paper-thin, homemade pasta “handkerchiefs” folded over a delicate three cheese filling, which is then layered with pasta sauce to create one of the best alternative versions ever. This might be my favorite cheese lasagna of all time. Enjoy!

  1. The TASTING is always the best part. I love the ending… was just about to say, we want to see the middle… and yes, he passed the test. This looks terrific. Many never had a LASAGNA without the middle being hard. Then, it's so unconfortable to compliment the host… but this seems doable. CHEF JOHN KNOWS! First, the FAJITA CHEESBURGER though.. xx..

  2. Chef John (AKA The Best of The Best) is always the best! Greetings from the JSC Mission Control in Houston TX! 😎🚀🥂🎉

  3. All good chefs share and teach what they know… because they have no reason to keep it to themselves as they’re always coming up with new recipes and building off of old recipes. Cheers to this chef for being one of the good ones. ❤

  4. How many times have I thought to my self, “how lucky am I to have found you, Chef John!” Today is no different! What a gorgeous recipe! I can’t wait to try it!

  5. Chef John, as the Chief Hankerer this yummy concoction is nothing to sneeze at. Already imagining what else to do with this with Italian, Indian, Chinese etc etc ingredients…. Thanks for expanding our Ker-choos…. Jacques Mexico

  6. This book called Forbidden Chef Secrets surprised me how it goes deep into cooking methods I never learned on YouTube. It’s actually made cooking fun again for me.

  7. I don't understand what you mean by "don't over-do it on the cheese". Literally no idea what that means 😂

  8. Please turn off autodubbing, watching from non english speaking automatically turns Chef Johns amazing voice into AI garbage

  9. This looks good but a poor name for it, handkerchief lasagna sounds like something you are going to blow your nose in, fabric lasagna would have been a much better name

  10. Maaaan, I havent seen this channel in yeeears, I think I was like 14 when I was last on here
    Im 21 now, very recently lost my father, and going through a tough time starting my second semester of aerospace engineering this very week, and the sheer amount of joy, nostalgia and comfort hearing your voice brought me was insane.
    thank you, chef john!

  11. Love that pan! It's like a Dutch oven had a night of passion with a paella pan and this was their love child

  12. I wanna top that pasta with like three or four cheeses and some sauce and roll it up into a giant spiral roll! 😋

  13. Chef, I cant make a decent bolognese style meat sauce. Its too acidic, or it tastes like nothing. If i add sugar for the acid, it makes things bland, salt doesnt help. A masterclass on bolognese style ground beef sauce would be just perfect.
