''Breakfast in Tuscany'' Lasagne with Tuscan Sausage, Pancetta & Golden Yolk Eggs

Story

For this week's limited edition lasagne, we draw inspiration from one of Italy's most loved and well-known regions, la Toscana. Differing from the modern Italian breakfast - typically comprising sweet pastries and breads - this dish celebrates Tuscan farmers, whose labour-intensive lifestyle often necessitates a breakfast of heartier proportions, involving meat or leftover soup from the night before.

Whilst we've omitted the soup here, for rather obvious reasons, our lasagne nourishes both body and soul. Carefully layered with creamy besciamella sauce - known to have originated from Tuscany - and richly flavoured with Italian pancetta and hearty, meat sausage, this is a comforting classic. What merits most attention, however, is our inclusion of egg. Using the best, freshest eggs, these impart a wonderfully golden hue, as well as a rich creamy texture that that only egg seems to achieve. A dish of most consummate beauty, we envisage devouring it in a rustic bed & breakfast overlooking the iconic Tuscan landscape. And whilst we wouldn't normally prescribe lasagne for breakfast, we're certainly not opposed to the idea. Au contraire. They do say it's the most important meal of the day, after all... Best, then, it gets off to a good start...
