Bolognese meat sauce is one of the iconic recipes of Italian cuisine around the world.
Born in the heart of Emilia-Romagna, this meat sauce is used to season “iconic” and familiar traditional dishes.
The original recipe of Ragù alla Bolognese was deposited in 1982.
It calls for the use of pancetta, which I do not use.
If you want to follow the original recipe these are the ingredients:
- 300 gr. beef cartella (thin skirt)
- 150 gr. pancetta, dried
- 50 gr. carrot
- 50 gr. celery stalk
- 50 gr. onion
- 5 spoons tomato sauce or 20 gr. triple tomato extract
- 1 cup whole milk
- Half cup white or red wine, dry and not frizzante
- Salt and pepper, to taste.
