How it comes together

  1. Make the pasta dough, knead until smooth, rest for 30 minutes, roll thin, then boil for 1 minute.
  2. Sauté the shallots and garlic in olive oil. Add the zucchini and cook until tender. Stir in the spinach, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  3. For the béchamel, melt the butter and sauté the leeks until soft. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1–2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth and slightly thickened. Stir in the Dijon and Parmesan, then season with salt and pepper.
  4. Bake at 350°F for 40 minutes, uncovering for the last 5–10 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes before serving.

This creamy lasagna was baked in my favorite @smitheyironware skillet, while the sauce came together in my beautiful @sertodo_copper pot and @falkcopperusa pots. They're some of my most beautiful pieces in my kitchen.
