Lasagna with cheese on top

[RainbowRaine]

Just ordered a food delivery as a treat, DH ordered a lasagna and it came with cheese on top.

I would of complained as cheese does not belong on lasagna but DH loves it as says it's meant to come with melted grated cheese on top.

I disagree and think it's just meant to have the white sauce.

Should Lasagna have cheese?

YANBU = No cheese

YABU = Yes cheese

?
Lasagne always has cheese on top the more the better.

If there's no cheese it's not a lasagne. It's just sheets of pasta with beef between each layer

The golden cheesy top is the best bit, especially if it's a bit charred around the edges!

I suppose any dish made of lasagne sheets layered with something and baked is "lasagne".

But one without cheese wouldn't be a nice one.

Of course it should at least have Parmesan on it.

Are you out of your mind?

Cheese makes everything better.

No cheese? It needs at least two, three is better.

I want some cheese now.

If it’s a thick layer of gloopy orange oily cheddar then yanbu. If it’s grated Parmesan then yabu.

Wtf does a top layer of cheeseless bechamel look and taste like anyway?

Why wouldn’t it have cheese?

Like disappointment.

Actually when I was a kid my mum used to make it with plain white sauce as you describe. I didn’t like it, found it sickly. I do, now however love a deep, cheesy, lasagne so YABU, even if you may be right from a purist viewpoint.

YABVU, also, you haven’t lived! Try it!

Sprinkled Parmesan, woman!

YABVVVVVU

@ErrolTheDragon you put nutmeg in though.

Traditional Italian lasagne has white sauce and a sprinke of parmesan on the top

DS takes the crispy chewy cheesy layer off his lasagne as he doesn’t like it.

Then I eat it for him.

Regret.

2020 is a cheeseless lasagne

Someone finally nailed this abomination of a year.

Well of course you put nutmeg in it; that doesn't really help with what would happen to the surface of the bechamel. It's not egg custard. I do sometimes to an egg and yogurt topping but that needs Parmesan too, it's not custardy.

Just asked my DD for her opinion, this was her response:

‘A cheese less lasagne is 2020 summed up in a meal’

Everything should have a layer of melted cheese on top. EVERYTHING.

I certainly wouldn’t rate your lasagne if you served it to me without cheese.
