About Italian bolognese

Italian Bolognese is a classic meat-based sauce from Bologna, Italy, traditionally served with pasta like tagliatelle. This hearty dish combines ground beef or pork, sautéed onions, carrots, celery, tomato puree, white wine, and milk or cream for a rich, savory flavor. Seasoned with herbs like oregano and bay leaves, Bolognese is a staple of Italian cuisine. While the protein from the meat offers essential nutrients and the vegetables provide fiber, vitamins, and minerals, it can be high in saturated fat depending on the cuts of meat and dairy used. Opting for lean ground meat and limiting added cream can make it a healthier option. Often paired with whole-grain pasta, it becomes a balanced meal that satisfies and energizes. Moderation and mindful ingredient choices can ensure that this beloved dish fits into a nutritious diet.
