meat tomato sauce
The traditional ragu’ is a very thick, rich, and tasty sauce that
requires about 3–4 hours of preparation. The meat-tomato sauce of this recipe is full in taste, but takes less time to prepare, which makes it practical for everyday, faster cooking. This sauce, besides being the perfect complement for bolognese lasagna, is also excellent as a dressing for pasta (e.g., spaghetti, fettuccine, egg noodles, fresh pasta). Add the sauce to the freshly drained pasta, top with grated parmigiano cheese, toss, and serve at once. To add taste to the sauce, a mixture of different ground meats can be used, such as half beef and half pork. The addition of milk helps reduce the acidity of the tomatoes if they are not ripe enough. 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 3 tablespoons (45 gr) butter 1 medium onion, finely diced 1 carrot, finely diced ½ stick celery, finely diced 1 garlic clove, diced ½ lb (225 gr) ground meat ¼ cup (60 cc) dry white wine salt and pepper 2½ cups (550 gr) tomatoes, puréed in a blender pinch of nutmeg 2 tablespoons milk or heavy cream Place oil and butter in a saucepan, and turn the heat to medium. When the butter starts foaming, add the onion, carrot, celery, and garlic. Sauté and stir until the onion is soft and translucent. Add the ground meat. Stir with a wooden spoon, and break the meat into small bits. Cook until the meat is fully browned. Add the wine, salt, and pepper. Turn the heat to high, and let the wine evaporate. Add the tomato, nutmeg, and milk. When the sauce starts boiling, turn the heat to low. Cover the saucepan and simmer slowly for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally. ciao, anna maria This sauce is in the fresh pasta chapter of my book. And for the less skilled i published step-by-step pics on my website. I just updated my web-page www.annamariavolpi.com with more STEP-BY-STEP recipes. Among them how to prepare fresh pasta. www.annamariavolpi.com/page28.html |

meat tomato sauce
This sounds delish. I was going to use my own marinara for tonight's
fetuccini, I think I'll try this instead. I'll write soon to let you know.

Sugar in tomato sauce sounds revolting anyway. |
