I just went to post this recipe and found it was already here. It says it's from epicurious.com but I think I adapted it originally from Bon Appetit. This is lasagna is absolutely TOO good, really special. The only changes I make are I use a dry white wine, but not dry vermouth, I often use romano rather than parmesan cheese and I've made it with part skim rather than whole milk mozzarella. I can't praise this one enough.
