A little recipe of RAGU BOLOGNESE. It is a sauce that, according to its name, comes from Bologna. Bologna is a city north of Italy known for its gastronomy. There are many variations of this recipe and every time I travel I try to steal a little ingredient here and there. Try it and let me know what you think.
Here is the recipe:
1 pound of ground beef, and 3/4 pound of ground pork or Italian sausage.
3 strips of bacon, or pancetta
1 large of onion, diced
2 large carrots, diced and 2 stalks of celery, also diced.
