Instructions
 

  • In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped pancetta and sauté until it's golden and crispy. Remove the pancetta from the pot and set it aside.
  • In the same pot, add the ground beef and cook until it's browned and cooked through. Use a wooden spoon to break up the meat into small pieces as it cooks. Once cooked, remove any excess fat from the pot.
  • Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery to the pot. Sauté the vegetables until they're softened and the onion is translucent.
  • Return the cooked pancetta to the pot and add the minced garlic. Sauté for another minute until the garlic is fragrant.
  • Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for a few minutes until it reduces by half.
  • Add the Flora Fine Foods Tomato Passata to the pot and stir to combine. Let the sauce simmer gently for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
  • Pour in the milk and stir. The milk helps to balance the acidity of the tomatoes and adds richness to the sauce. Let the sauce simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes.  One potential secret:  the addition of a small amount of ground nutmeg is something favored by many Italians.
  • While the sauce is simmering, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Flora Fine Foods Tagliatelle pasta and cook according to the package instructions until it's al dente. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
  • Once the ragù sauce has thickened and the flavors have developed, season it with salt and pepper to taste.
  • To serve, plate the cooked Tagliatelle pasta and top it generously with the ragù Bolognese sauce. Finish with a sprinkle of freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese.
