    Interestingly, Eva's recipe from Pasta Grammar actually includes nutmeg which, apparently, is derived from the very first published recipe of "maccheroni alla bolognese" from Pelegrino Artusi (which also included butter). Just goes to show how much things can (and do) change over time. :) I love your content, Vincenzo! You've helped me so much to learn authentic Italian recipes, and while this may not be what is considered an authentic Bolognese now, I am certain it's delicious :D

      On the other hand, Artusi's Bolognese has no tomatoes. So the question is, can you mix the two recipes...

      When I make bolognese it's a mix of several different recipes including Vincenzo's. I also follow Marcella Hazan's recipe (She wrote the book on italian home cooking like 60 or 70 years ago), and it includes a little bit of nutmeg.

    Hi Vincenzo!! Thanks for featuring AB. AB is an excellent cook! I DO follow his channel. And, he definitely knows his way around a southern kitchen! I don't agree with everything he did here. I cook mine like David did on your channel. But! Other than the nutmeg, I'm sure this is delicious. One change that I have made from yours and David's... I DO use cream at the last 20 minutes. I do NOT use milk ever, or butter. But, I enjoy the richness that the cooked cream offers. That's just me. Lol :-) But, watch AB's Smothered Pork Chops video. THAT is southern cooking! They are delicious! I think you'll enjoy it. Thanks again, my friend, for featuring a wonderful cook and a great guy. Peace to you and your family!

  • @puxkx5827

    3:26 In the US, we have developed a salty taste palate stemming from generations of pioneers and colonists who preserved meat through salting or smoking, and then salt pork became a staple of the US diet. Another reason is salt acting as the main preservative in store-bought breads. After generations of consuming these types of foods, we have developed a strong preference for salty flavors and tend to add salt to most dishes without even thinking about it. I'm sure there are other contributing factors, these are just two I can think of off the top of my head.

    • @jonsher7682
      @jonsher7682 Месяц назад +8

      No refrigeration in Italy for generations that used salt to preserve meat too, so that is not the difference. I think you are right that Americans have become dependent on heavily-processed, shelf-stable foods with too much salt, and as well, Americans have had less access to great produce and locally produced meats, than did Italians.

    Vincenzo, I see the logic in removing the soffrito to allow for the proper browning of the meat (malliard reaction) and let them make love when in the sauce, otherwise the veggies could become overcooked by the higher temps. I've done it both ways and the flavor is superior and the textures as well this way.

    I do the same with my sofrito. oil and a bit of butter. Putting the onions first lets you sweat the onions before putting in anything else. The liquid from the carrots and celery will interfere with the onions sweating. That combined with the butter gets you deeper caramelization.
    But that's just my experience.. I'm not a chef or a food scientist lol.
    A pinch of salt right after sweating the onions slows down the cooking a bit and helps to prevent burning. I agree with you on the pepper.. you want that pepper flavor fresh, not roasted.
    And 100% agree you need to let the meat and veg make love!

      Same observation made on the sofrito. Sweat out the onions first, with the help of some salt to break down the cell walls. Sofrito done and set aside. Then they can join the meat later after they have received sufficient millard reaction aka browning.
      Besides that, I also salt as I go - each time I add a new ingredient so I don't over-salt at the end. Chef's tip.

    He sounds pretty southern, our cooking down here has a lot of french and african influence, so most of the dishes we make we try to get all flavors together as soon as we can so they marry together as opposed to layering them at different times through the process.
    I'd say that lot of the world likes to taste things on the top notes, the first smells and tastes that hits you, and trails off into a single taste. We like the initial flavor of something to be one thing, and from there to start getting the individual tastes of things that were put in. If that makes any sense to you.

    I cook my meat separetly to the soffrito as well, because in the sofritto I want medium heat and no carmelisation to make the vegetables sweeter, while in the meat I want more heat, and uncrowded pan to get some Maillard reaction and make it saltier. That way I don't even need any salt in my ragu. Only some cheese when plating. Of course after the meat is browned it joins the sofritto, and finishes cooking there untill all meat juices are reduced. Then the wine goes in. Reduce again, then tomatoes and water. Then 4h of simmering. And personally I always start the evening before (because I'm not an early bird) so I like to leave my ragu overnight, reheat it the next day for half an hour more, and then put the milk in. Grandma always said ragu is even better when you reheat it. :)
    Edit: and honestly I would recommend anyone making a ragu bolognese without any seasoning/herbs at least once in their lives. That really goes for any recipe that exists. Make and taste the original thing first, then maybe alter it and make adjustments to your liking. Because if you don't know how the original thing tastes, you have no idea what you're doing when you make your version. And I promise you, you won't feel the need of making any adjustments with 90% of the original recipes you have followed to the T

    Ok, it's actually very important to use heavy cream in addition to milk in the US if you're using grocery store milk to make a recipe that originated in another country: buy any good, fresh milk from your local dairy, and you'll see all the milkfat that you're missing out on from grocery store milk. I imagine in Italy you wouldn't have this problem, but here, it's actually important. It's like how our bread recipes get screwed up because most of our all-purpose flour is only 9% protein.

      @@jojidubi4 If by "fresher" you mean straight from a dairy, then what I said doesn't apply. The act of being certified organic doesn't help at all with what I was talking about, and actually, certified organic milk is one of the only certified organic products that is never better, and is sometimes worse than non-certified products: the primary difference between the two is that certified cows can never be given antibiotics, but non-certified cows have to be segregated after they've been given antibiotics, and their milk has to be tested for trace amounts of them (there's a zero tolerance policy), so you aren't getting them in your milk anyway. What can make certified cows worse is that they can't be given antibiotics, but they are allowed to be milked while they're sick with whatever you would give antibiotics for, so no matter where you get milk, you aren't getting antibiotics, and if you get organic milk, it's possible you're getting diseased milk.

    I've been traveling to Italy a few times. I love it there... The people, the mentallity, the food. In the north they cook different then in the south. It's all very tasty. I also learned that every Nonna has her own recipes. From street to street it differs a lot sometimes so what is authentic?? . I think that's a good thing. Making a recipe your own and give it your own twist. If it's tasty, it's good. That's all that matters. I never use milk or cream in my bolognese sauce but maybe it's tasty... I don't know. Every country has authentic recipes that develop over the years and gets mixed up with authentic recipes from other countries because we live in a multi- cultural society. That's not a bad thing. The most important thing is that we cook with fresh ingredients and enjoy it and love each other. Nothing else matters. I like your channel because I always learn something and you make me laugh with your funny face expressions . I enjoy it.

    Italian chefs must understand that it is not necessary to make any dish in accordance with only one traditional method. It's OK to make variations and adapt a dish to local culture. I would not, myself add grated cheese to a bolognese sauce, but I DO add nutmeg and sometimes heavy cream at the end. Cooking is about knowing the "right way" to make something, and then putting your own twist based on your preferences, tastes, or simply whim...

    I'm guessing that you meant Nutmeg when you were saying cinnamon. He didn't add cinnamon to the dish at any point. Also, I think it was okay to add the parm at the point he did because adding the cream would've dropped the temperature of the sauce which allows for the cheese to not split or get stringy while the temperature of the sauce was coming back up.
