Tagliatelle with Ragù alla Bolognese
From Chef Rosario:
The title tagliatelle comes from the Italian verb “tagliare,” which implies “to chop.” The title fettuccine comes from the noun “fettucce,” which implies skinny slices or ribbons. What’s the distinction? Tagliatelle are common within the area of Emilia Romagna and Fettuccine in Lazio. Nevertheless, the 2 sorts of pasta are very related and fairly interchangeable in recipes. Each area of Italy has its personal phrases of endearment for its pasta, and naturally, that features the names and nicknames of pasta shapes.
Bolognese sauce is thought in Bologna as Ragù alla Bolognese. It’s sometimes served with tagliatelle and never with spaghetti. The unique recipe was archived in 1982 within the Bologna Chamber of Commerce by the Italian Culinary Academy.
