How to Make Pasta with Bolognese Sauce
Original meat-based sauce Bolognese was officially registered at Bologna’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry in 1982. But each cook as well as any household has its own recipes which differ from the original one, but still use the same basic ingredients.
We decided to post our own version because it is very light and pasta with Bolognese sauce is just delicious. We used farfalle pasta in our recipe, commonly known as “bow-tie pasta”. This pasta is short and nice-looking. It goes well with various sauces, resulting in new appetizing dishes.
