“Every year for Thanksgiving, my family’s holiday tradition is to make fresh pasta. Yes, the traditional turkey is always on the table, usually tucked away in the back corner while we all ohh and ahh over the pasta. In year’s past it’s been ravioli, papardelle, mezza luna, and even agnolotti. Within minutes of Daniel’s lasagna alla norma recipe going live on the SE homepage, my mom emailed me saying ‘We’re making this as our pasta for Thanksgiving.’ We’ll take the time to roll out the sheets of fresh lasagna noodles, use up my mom’s freezer stash of her summer garden tomato sauce, fry the eggplant, and assemble it the day before, ensuring less chaos in the kitchen on actual T-day. I’m sure it will outshine our turkey.” —Leah Colins, senior culinary editor
“A vegetarian lasagna that really hits the spot is possible! It’s called lasagna all Norma. I was lucky enough to be in the studio when Amanda and Daniel were shooting this recipe, so I can confirm that this recipe hits hard. While I love, and occasionally make, pasta all Norma, layering the components between sheets of fresh pasta and baking until melty takes it to another level.” —Kelli Solomon, senior social media editor
