Bury Me Bolognese

Bury Me Bolognese Bolognese is made differently in every household, and this recipe… is mine. The sauce is great on its own, but even better in a Lasagna. (Recipe and Video coming soon for that one) Ingredients: -Meat 2lb Ground Beef 900g 1lb Ground Pork 450g -Mirepoix 1 Onion 360g 1 Carrot 180g 2 Stalks Celery 180g -Spices (Adjust however you like) 3 Bay Leaves 1 tsp Dried Basil ½ tsp Dried Thyme ½ tsp Dried Oregano ¼ tsp Dried Red Pepper 3 Cloves Garlic Parmesan Rinds 2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Pepper (1-2 Tbsp of the rendered grease from earlier - optional) -The Rest Approx - 6lb Crushed Tomatoes Water Salt Pepper 1 Cup Heavy Cream Directions: Fry the ground meat in the largest pot you own. As the fat renders set it aside for later, so that the meat browns instead of boiling. Once the meat has started to brown, add the finely diced mirepoix. Steam those for 5 minutes before deglazing with a glass of red wine. Measure with your heart. Scrape off all the browned bits of meat, and then add your spices, tomatoes, and water until the whole mix is fully covered with water and boils loosely. Simmer on low, covered for 4 hours (or more). When the sauce reaches its ultimate thickness add salt, pepper, and heavy cream to taste. Toss with your favorite pasta and share with the love of your life. #bolognese #italianfood #burymebolognese #pasta #cooking
