Spaghetti Bolognese is one of the world's most famous and beloved pasta dishes, with a history linked to the Italian city of Bologna. The basis of the dish is a rich, meaty ragu, which is slowly cooked so that the flavors fully blend together. Preparing Spaghetti Bolognese is simple, but the end result reflects the best of traditional Italian cuisine in every bite.
The secret of Spaghetti Bolognese is the long cooking time, which allows all the flavors of the meat, tomatoes and spices to fully intertwine.

The dish is not only one of the best-known dishes of Italian cuisine, but also of international gastronomy, which is attractive to all ages.
