This year, Vincenzo and I decided to make lasagna for Christmas, just as his mother, Concetta made the first year we celebrated the Christmas holiday together in Abruzzo. It's a memory I cherish and is described in Chapter 13 of the book. The recipe for Concetta's Christmas Lasagna is not in the book, so I thought I'd write it out for you here to read and try. It seems a bit long an complicated, but it's so worth the time and effort. And, how fun to make this with your family
