About Bolognese sause

Bolognese sauce is a rich, hearty meat-based sauce originating from Bologna, Italy. Traditionally, it combines ground beef or pork, onions, carrots, celery, tomatoes, and aromatic herbs, slow-cooked to develop deep flavors. Often enriched with white wine and milk or cream, it achieves its signature velvety texture. While served widely with pasta, especially tagliatelle, it can also be used in recipes like lasagna. Nutritionally, Bolognese is a good source of protein, vitamins A and C from vegetables, and healthy fats, depending on meat quality. However, its calorie count can rise due to fatty meats or added cream. Opting for lean meats and reducing added fats can make it a balanced choice. High in flavor and versatile, Bolognese sauce is a comforting classic with potential for a healthier twist.
