      @walmin73 3 роки тому +7

      ​@@bon7029 Well, the reaction is that good because Cowboy Kent did a great job. Yes, the wine should go with the meat, the soffritto is quite important, but it is obvious that he knows what he's doing and overall his recipe is way beyond my expectations. I bet that his lasagna is delicious. Vincenzo wouldn't be so kind reacting to some carbonara here on YT...
      By the way, I like to make my own pasta (just eggs and flour) and end my lasagna with a top layer of pasta. I love how crisp it gets. But that's my taste and probably Vincenzo would be horrified by that :D

      Yes, you have to remember that Kent is making meals on the trail that don't require a refrigerator so they will almost never be authentic to what restaurants can do. But his gift is showing us that trail/camp food never needs to be unfulfilling or bland. His meals will put you right to peaceful sleep after a long day in the great outdoors. 😄

      Depend on when you thing tradition and authenticity begins... this lasagna does not correspond to the italian tradition, but if you consider that cow boys have their own traditions, then this lasagna is indeed traditionnal, but not "italian traditionnal", "cow boy traditionnal". It totally depend on how old and how specific you consider something must be to be considered a tradition. In my opinion, cow boys have indeed developped their own culture, a culture that is based on previous existant european cultures, but that is still distinct from them. And if that lasagna recipe is very old and specific to cow boys, then I wouldn't see why it wouldn't be considered traditionnal. Quick note though, I am not sure if Kent Rollins invented that recipe or not, I don't remember what he said, but if he created it then I wouldn't consider it traditionnal. I assume he didn't created it.
