The Most Delicious Bolognese

Course: Sauce
Cuisine: Italian
Keyword: Bolognese

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1-2 tsp Salt Plus more to taste
  • 1 lb Ground Pork
  • 1 lb Ground Veal If you can't find, use ground beef
  • 4 cups Marinara Sauce Follow my easy recipe
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1/4 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/2 cup Parmigiano Reggiano

Instructions

  • Brown the Meats: Incorporate the ground pork and veal to a hot dutch oven or quality braising pot with a bit of extra virgin olive oil and season with salt, cooking until browned. 
    (I love my Ruffoni copper braising pot and use it every time for this dish.)
    Remember, brown equals flavor with meat, so don’t be afraid to turn up the head and let those flavors develop.
  • Add that Marinara Sauce: Add your sauce until it covers just above the browned meat.  Let that simmer on low for 30 minutes.  
  • Finish with Butter and Cheese: Stir in butter and Parmigiano Reggiano for a velvety finish, then adjust seasoning as needed.
