Cooking Instructions

• In a large skillet heat the olive oil. When almost smoking, add the onion and garlic and saute over medium heat until the onions become very soft, about 8 minutes.
• Add the celery and carrot and saute for 5 minutes.
• Raise heat to high and add the ground beef. Saute, stirring frequently and breaking up any large lumps and cook until meat is no longer pink, about 10 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes, parsley and basil and cook over medium low heat until the sauce thickens. About a half hour.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Finish bolognese with Pecorino Romano.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat.
• Cook/boil pasta in a large pot according to package instructions until al dente.
• Add the pasta directly from the pasta water to the sauce. Serve drizzled with more olive oil and sprinkled with more cheese if desired.
