Bolognese sauce

Bolognese sauce, known in Italian as ragù alla bolognese or ragù bolognese, is the main variety of ragù in Italian cuisine, typical of the city of Bologna. Ragù alla bolognese is a slowly cooked meat-based sauce, and its preparation involves several techniques, including sweating, sautéing, and braising. Ingredients include a characteristic soffritto of onion, celery, and carrot, and different types of minced or finely chopped beef, often alongside small amounts of fatty pork. White wine, milk, and a small amount of tomato paste or tomato sauce are added, and the dish is then gently simmered at length to produce a thick sauce. Ragù alla bolognese is customarily used to dress tagliatelle al ragù and to prepare lasagne alla bolognese.
