The world has seen explosive innovation in pizza, yet lasagna has pretty much remained in the realm of “stomach bomb.” What if there were a lasagna that can be enjoyed all the way through the final bite? One with a light, silky sauce, in place of ooey-gooey cheese?

The answer is a combination of besciamella and ragù Bolognese, which Chris Kimball learned from chef Alberto Bettini and his family’s Michelin-­starred restaurant Amerigo.

“The fat content of the meat lends a lubricity and depth to the sauce without milk or cream,” Chris wrote of Bettini’s ragù, which maintained depth of flavor and kept the meat soft throughout the long cook time. “In fact, when I asked Orlandi about the lack of dairy, he looked puzzled. Cream in ragù Bolognese? No!”

We found we could shave down the cook time and replicate the meatiness of local beef and pork by browning tomato paste and using beef broth. Then, we applied thin layers of that luscious meat sauce and a simple besciamella to lasagna, and we finally arrived at the lighter, silkier dish we crave. (You can also use this ragù for a simple tagliatelle.)
