Listen up people, this is the real deal. I personally put milk in mine which is largely traditional amongst many Italian Ragù Bologneses. What you must remember is always onion, celery and carrot. That’s it for veg, no herbs, no garlic, no spices this isn’t a made up version, the real deal is simple yet complex in flavour. That also means put your cans of tomato away as this is a meat based dish, tomato is used sparingly for mainly colour, tomato paste is enough. The key to this is long cooking hours. I usually leave in the slow cooker for 8 hours but I’ve found 4 is good enough. What people don’t understand is sometimes more ingredients actually take away from the final product. Have trust, let the few ingredients come together and impress you like never before. Also, ensure you use both beef and pork with salt and pepper to taste. Pancetta or pork mince on it’s own or a mixture is fine, just ensure the ratios of beef to pork are as such that one doesn’t overpower the other. Yours sincerely, The pasta police.

This is the most authentic recipe on youtube. Even many Italian chefs get the tomato part wrong, they use tomato sauce / tomato puree, instead of a small amount of tomato paste.

I never usually leave a comment after trying a recipe but this was honestly delicious!! Tasted like my favourite Italian restaurant's ragu. I used the exact recipe and it did not disappoint! Yummy

I did this finish last night and it was so so so ... delicious! My boyfriend had some cheese at hand but decide to taste the pasta with the sauce first, and after tasting it, he decided *not* to put any cheese on it. I think one of the factors for such a tasty dish is cooking it on low heat for 2 hours (and the wine, and the butter, and the onion, carrot and celery of course :P)

I never get bored of watching people make Bolognese, it's probably my favourite meal. I will admit I put my own little things in there, I usually add a very small pinch of fennel seeds at the beginning with the oil and I sort of like it when there are little chunks of meat (like mini meat balls) so I don't break it up too finely... oh, and I still like using Spaghetti instead of Tagliatelle for any Italian 'experts' who are ready to deride me for that. With the soffritto I usually add a finely chopped red bell pepper also, I mean, why not? As far a concetrated tomato Vs tinned wouldn't just leaving the sauce on the hob for a few hours reducing without a lid on basically make it concentrated with crushed tinned tomatoes anyway though?

***** Doesn't the process of making concentrated tomato require long cooking to evaporate the water anyway? That's why it so intense.. It's basically the thick tidemark stuff left when you reduce a sauce on the sides of the pan uncovered on low for several hours (with splashes of water or stock). I've tried several methods, but I've never noticed a crucial difference. Then again, if I presented my food to an Italian Mamma she'd probably shoot me down.

For me.. YES! Never used to but whenever I find a tasty looking recipe to try it often includes stock liquid. It just adds a kick of flavour to any sauce or soup or protein dish, and you can freeze any left over liquid. You can get it in the carton and also as dehydrated stock cubes ( AU $4 approx) to add to water that you can keep in the pantry easily. You can make your own but it's a bit of effort.

Always cook the sauce for a few hours delicious

Why do chefs use EVOO at high temperatures? It denatures the oil and loses the delicate flavours. I've always had a rule that regular OO for frying and long sautees, and EVOO for salads, or very quick pan work, like a lightly fried brocolli etc.

@TheMillennialGardener

5 жыл бұрын

Regular olive oil isn't as shelf-stable due to the removal of the antioxidants found in extra virgin olive oil. I don't buy pure olive oil out of principle. You may as well buy high oleic sunflower oil or avocado oil. Pure olive oil has no flavor anyway, so you may as well use the oil that is better for you at a very marginal increased cost.

Love the pancetta idea I will have to do it next time. Not a fan of wine more of the tomato base guy myself. But have given me some awesome ideas thank you
