UPDATED RECIPE FOR REAL RAGÙ ALLA BOLOGNESE

DEPOSITED IN THE BOLOGNA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ON 20 APRIL 2023

Official RECIPE RAGU of BOLOGNA

RECIPE :

Coarsely ground beef (see note): 1 lb (400g)

• Fresh pork pancetta, slices: 6 oz (150g)

• ½ onion, peeled: about 2 oz (60g)

• 1 medium carrot, peeled: about 2 oz (60g)

• 1 celery stalk, trimmed: about 2 oz (60g)

• ½ cup (1 glass) of red or white wine

• Strained tomatoes: 7 oz (200g)

• Tomato paste (double-concentrated): 1 tbsp

• ½ cup (1 glass) of whole milk (optional)

• Light meat or vegetable broth (or stock cubes)

• Extra virgin olive oil: 3 tbsp

• Salt and pepper

PREPARATION :

In a heavy non-stick 10-inch (24-26cm) casserole (aluminium or enamelled cast-iron (Dutch oven)

or terracotta saucepans can be used), melt the ground or chopped pancetta with olive oil.

Using a chef’s or chopping knife, finely chop the onion, celery, and carrot (do not use a food

processor); add the vegetables to the oil and pancetta and cook over low heat, stirring constantly

with a wooden spoon until softened but not browned.

Raise the heat to medium and add the meat, break it up, then cook for about ten minutes, always

stirring, until it sizzles and browns.

Add the wine; cook over medium heat until it has completely evaporated. Add the tomato paste

and purée. Mix well; add a cup of boiling stock (or water) and simmer, covered, for about 2 hours

(or 3 depending on preference and type of meat), adding hot broth (or water) as needed. Add any

milk (traditionally used) half way through the cooking; allow to evaporate completely. Season with

salt and pepper before serving. When ready the sauce will be a rich maroon hue, thick and glossy.

ISTITUZIONE CULTURALE

DELLA REPUBBLICA ITALIANA

Note

Traditionally, in Bologna hanger or skirt steak is used (the diaphragm of the beef, which is difficult

to find today). In lieu or in addition, favour anterior cuts, rich in collagen, such as shoulder or

chuck, brisket, plate or flank. Combinations are acceptable, as is the modern technique of

browning the meat separately and then adding it to the softened minced vegetables in the pan.

Permitted variants:

• Mixed beef and pork (about 60% beef)

• Meat minced with a knife

• Cured pancetta instead of fresh pancetta

• A pinch of nutmeg

Unacceptable variants:

• Veal

• Smoked pancetta or bacon

• Only pork

• Garlic, rosemary, parsley or other herbs and spices

• Brandy instead of wine

• Flour as a thickening agent

Ragù alla bolognese can be enriched with:

• Chicken livers, hearts and gizzards

• Peeled and crumbled pork sausage

• Blanched peas, added at the end of cooking

• Dried porcini, rehydrated

Spaghetti Nerano alla Bellino

Honorable Mention

SPAGHETTI NERANO – Recipe

Spaghetti is one of the most famous dishes of the Amalfi Coast. The dish comes from the town of Nerano on the coast of the Sorrento Peninsula just across from Capri. The dish was created by Maria Grazia at her trattoria in Nerano. The primary ingredient of the dish is Zucchini with Povola or Caciocavallo Cheese grated into the pasta. Many restaurants on the Amalfi Coast and Capri serve this dish, and most locals know how to make it, and cook it at home, especially if they happen to have a little garden growing Zucchini, Tomatoes, and other vegetables. It’s easy to make and soul satisfying. If you’ve been to the area you may have already eaten it, and so know you can make it back home. Enjoy.

Ingredients :

3 medium sized Zucchini, washed

4 tablespoons Olive Oil

1 tablespoon Butter

3 cloves Garlic, peeled and cut in half

¼ cup fresh Basil, washed and leaves torn in half

¾  cup of grated Caciocavallo Cheese

1 pound imported Italian Spaghetti

Sea Salt and ground Black Pepper

Slice the Zucchini into ⅛” rounds.

Fill a large pot ¾ full of water, with 2 tablespoons salt and bring to the boil.

Place the Olive Oil  in  a large frying pan, and turn heat to a medium flame. Add the Zucchini and start to cool. Sprinkle the zucchini with about ½ teaspoon each of salt and Black Pepper. Add the butter and garlic and cook the zucchini for 4-5 minutes on medium heat.

Add about a ¼ of the pasta cooking water to the pan with the zucchini, turn the heat to low and cook for about 6 minutes on low heat. Stir the zucchini with a wooden spoon as it is cooking.

Put the spaghetti into the rapidly boiling water and cook according to the directions on the package and the spaghetti is al dente (slightly firm to the bite) usually about 10-11 minutes.

After the zucchini has cooked for a total of about 11 minutes. Turn the heat off. add the Basil and stir. Taste 1 piece of zucchini for seasoning to see if you want to add any more salt or pepper.

When the spaghetti is cooked, turn the heat off and drain the spaghetti into a colander, reserving ¼ cup of the pasta cooking water in case you need to add to the sauce.

Return the spaghetti to the put that it cooked in. Add all zucchini and all the juices from the pan in the pot with the spaghetti and stir.

Add half of the grated Caciocavallo cheese and stir. The consistency should be just slightly loose. If it is too tight, add a little pasta cooking water and stir. 

Plate the spaghetti on 4 plates, giving each person an even amount of zucchini. Drizzle a little olive oil over each plate and serve.

Note :  It’s best to make the dish with Caciocavallo Cheese, but if you can’t find, a combination of half grated Pecorino and half of Parmigiano Reggiano is a good substitute, or just Parmigano or Pecorino on their own.

Note II : Once you know how to make Spaghetti Nerano, you can make little variations, simply by adding one other ingredient that marries well with the dish. A great addition to this dish is to make Spaghetti Nerano just as above, and to add 4 or 5 pieces of sauteed shrimp on to each plate. Just have the shrimp ready and cook them in a little olive oil, seasoned with salt & pepper, and cooked for about 2 minutes on each side. Turn the heat off and add 4 or 5 pieces of shrimp to the plate with the Spaghetti Nerano and enjoy.

Spaghetti Vongole at Da MARINO

NAPLES, ITALY

Cookbook Author Daniel Bellino Zwicke says that this is the single best plate of

Spaghetti Vongole he has ever had in his life, and he has had many. He took this picture of his plate of Spaghetti Vongole at Ristorante / Pizzeria Da Marino in Naples one day. Daniel says that it was one of the most memorable meals of his life, "I Loved it," he said. He had a Insalata Frutta di Mare ( recipe ) for antipasto, which he said was as good as can be.

Daniel says that he was just planning on a plate of Spaghetti Vongole and a stater, but when he saw the pizzas coming from the oven and how good they looking, he couldn't resist. He ordered a 

Pizza con Salame thinking he would eat just half. "It was so good, I ate the whole thing. One of the best pizzas I've ever had in my entire life, and much better than ones I've had at Da Mateo and other much more famous Pizzerias of Napoli," stated Daniel.
