    List of Ingredients




    6 T. butter
    6 T. flour
    4 C. milk
    Salt
    Freshly ground white pepper
    Pinch of nutmeg
    1/2 lb. fresh spinach, cleaned, stemmed and chopped
    8 oz. grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
    2 C. ricotta cheese
    1 egg
    2 t. chopped garlic
    8 oz. grated Mozzarella cheese
    3/4 lb. lump crabmeat, picked over for cartilage
    1 1/2 lb. lobster, cooked, meat removed and diced
    1/2 lb. fresh pasta sheets

    Recipe



    Preheat the oven to 350*. In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in
    the flour and cook for 2 minutes. Whisk in the milk, ½ cup at a time. Season with salt, pepper and
    nutmeg. Cook, stirring constantly for 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the spinach
    and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Makes 5 cups. Set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta
    cheese, egg, garlic and Mozzarella cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well. Set aside. Grease
    a 8"x8"square pan. To assemble, spread 1 cup of the sauce over the bottom of the pan. Season the crabmeat and lobster with salt and pepper. Sprinkle 1/4 of the crabmeat and lobster over the sauce. Sprinkle some of the remaining Parmesan cheese over the crabmeat. Cover the cheese with the fresh pasta. Spread 1/4 of the cheese filling evenly over the pasta. Repeat the layering until all of the ingredients are used. Top the lasagna with the remaining cup of the sauce. Place in the oven and bake until bubbly and golden, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes before serving.
