Next, he adds garlic and thyme, cooking them for two minutes before removing them from the pan to cool.
Using the same pan, he adds more olive oil along with minced pork and beef, cooking over high heat while breaking up the meat and removing moisture.
He then adds red wine to reduce, followed by tomato puree and the pre-cooked sofrito before putting in the tinned tomatoes.
After reducing the mixture for three hours, the final touch is stirring in milk to achieve a thick and glossy sauce, which is then served with al dente pasta.
He added: “This is based on my culinary knowledge, my nostalgia and also my experiences with some of the original recipes in Bologna.”
The chef said that good quality ingredients make all the difference when making your bolognese sauce.
