Pancetta – the delicate taste of Italy
A delicate bacon dream made from pork belly, lovingly embraced with rosemary and sage, gently salted and air-cured. Mild, aromatic, tender – a piece of Italian soul that will enhance your dish.
Tagliatelle al Ragù with Pancetta
A Sunday ritual from Bologna, fresh on your plate
Ingredients for 4 people
- 300 g pancetta, finely diced
- 1 kg minced meat (half beef, half pork or all beef)
- 3–5 carrots, finely diced
- 3 onions, finely chopped
- 3–5 stalks celery, finely diced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 glass wine (white or red, depending on your preference)
- •Salt & freshly ground pepper
- 1 kg canned tomatoes (whole tomatoes or chopped polpa)
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- Fresh tagliatelle (100–150 g per person)
- Grana Padano (aged at least 24 months), in one piece for grating
Little secrets from Bologna
- Ragù is not a tomato sauce, but a venerable meat sauce.
- Spaghetti? Not here! In northern Italy, we love wide tagliatelle.
- The pasta must be fresh: tender, light, and ready in just 3 minutes.
- Grate the Grana Padano fresh!
Buon appetito! 🍝✨
