DE CECCO: Lasagne Pasta, 16 oz

Description

Lasagna is one of the oldest forms of pasta recorded. It probably corresponds to the Latin “Lagana” (which in turn was derived from the Greek “laganon”: large, flat sheet of pasta cut into strips) and it began to be known as “Lasagna” probably after the year 1000 AD. The first traces of the widespread use of the term “Lasagna” can be found in the works of the most renowned 12th century Italian poets. “Granel di pepe vince / per virtù la lasagna”, (a peppercorn beats lasagna for virtue) states Jacopone da Todi.
