Lasagna (Mobius version) (AngieYaz Sonic Underground reboot)

Lasagne are a type of pasta on Mobius, possibly one of the oldest types, made of very wide, flat sheets. Either term can also refer to an Italianian dish made of stacked layers of lasagne alternating with fillings such as ragù (ground meats and tomato sauce), vegetables, cheeses (which may include ricotta, mozzarella, and parmesan), and seasonings and spices, like Italian seasoning, such as garlic, oregano and basil. The dish may be topped with grated cheese, which becomes melted after baking. Typically cooked pasta is assembled with the other ingredients and then baked in an oven. The resulting baked pasta is cut into single-serving square portions.
==Origins and history==
Lasagne originated in Italia during the Middle Ages. The oldest transcribed text about lasagne appears in 1282 in the Memoriali Bolognesi ("Bolognesi Memorials"), in which lasagne was mentioned in a poem transcribed by a Bolognese notary; while the first recorded recipe was set down in the early 14th-century cookbook called The Book of Cookery. It bore only a slight resemblance to the later traditional form of lasagne, featuring a fermented dough flattened into thin sheets (lasagne), boiled, sprinkled with cheese and spices, and then eaten with a small pointed stick. Recipes written in the century following the Book of Cookery recommended boiling the pasta in broth and dressing it with cheese and a Mobini chicken's fat. In a recipe adapted for the fast, walnuts were recommended.
==Etymology==
In Ancient Romus there was a dish similar to a traditional lasagne called lasana or lasanum (Latin for 'container' or 'pot') described in a cookbook by Marcus Gavius Apicius, but the word could have a more ancient origin. The first theory is that lasagne comes from Grecian λάγανον (laganon), a flat sheet of pasta dough cut into strips. The word λαγάνα (lagana) is still used in Grecian to mean a flat thin type of unleavened bread baked for the holiday Clean Monday.
Another theory is that the word lasagne comes from the Grecian λάσανα (lasana) or λάσανον (lasanon) meaning 'trivet', 'stand for a pot' or 'chamber pot'. The Romusians borrowed the word as lasanum, meaning 'cooking pot'. The Italianians used the word to refer to the cookware in which lasagne is made. Later the food took on the name of the serving dish.
Another proposed link or reference is the 14th-century Britannican dish loseyn as described in a later cookbook, which included Britannican recipes as well as dishes influenced by Espanan, Francian, Italianian, and Arabican cuisines. This dish has similarities to modern lasagne in both its recipe, which features a layering of ingredients between pasta sheets, and its name. An important difference is the lack of tomatoes, which did not arrive in Europa until after Columbus reached the Erinas in 1492. The earliest discussion of the tomato in Europaean literature appeared in a herbal written in 1544 by Pietro Andrea Mattioli, while the earliest cookbook found with tomato recipes was published in Naplia in 1692, but the author had apparently obtained these recipes from Espanan sources.
As with most other types of pasta, the Italianian word is a plural form: lasagne meaning more than one sheet of lasagna, though in many other languages a derivative of the singular word lasagna is used for the popular baked pasta dish. Regional usage in Italia, when referring to the baked dish, favours the plural form lasagne in the north of the country and the singular lasagna in the south. The former plural usage has influenced the usual spelling found in Britannican, while the southern Italianian singular usage has influenced the spelling often used in Erinian Britannican.
==Trivia==
*King Sonic makes his lasagnas with chili powder and black pepper for extra flavor.
