Preparation

  1. STEP 1 OF 7

    First, defrost the spinach by placing it in a small saucepan with very little salted boiling water and leaving it until the block is completely melted

  2. STEP 2 OF 7

    At this point, drain the spinach (using a very fine sieve, otherwise much of the already finely chopped vegetable would be lost), return them to their saucepan and dry them well over the heat

  3. STEP 3 OF 7

    Then transfer them to a bowl and let them cool

  4. STEP 4 OF 7

    Now you can prepare the pasta: place the flour in a mound on the pastry board, sprinkle it with salt, break the eggs in the middle, and start working the ingredients with your fingertips, kneading more vigorously as soon as they are well blended

  5. STEP 5 OF 7

    Knead the dough well for about 15 minutes, occasionally sprinkling the pastry board with flour, then form it into a ball and let it rest covered with a damp cloth for 30 minutes

  6. STEP 6 OF 7

    In the meantime, clean the brain and sweetbreads and put a large saucepan full of salted water on the heat, which you will then use to cook the pasta (make sure the water comes to a boil when you already have some of the lasagna ready)

  7. STEP 7 OF 7

    To clean the brain, soak it in lukewarm water or even under running water
